Today in our RE lesson we looked at places of worship and compared them with our school. We found out that there are lots of similarities in the two and thought about some of the activities we do in school.
Great job superstars!
Class 6 RE
Category : Miss Rodger’s class
Year 1: Phonics
This week in phonics Miss Schön and Miss Rodgers group have been learning /ou/ ‘Shout it out!’.
We have been reading the book ‘An Outing in the Woods’. We have discussed the the vocabulary and the meaning of different words and phrases.
We now know 2 differerent /ow/ sounds
/ow/ as in cow, brown and town
/ou/ as in out, shout and loud
We have also learned that words can end in el or le and the ‘e’ is silent
We have also learned that when there is a ‘st‘ next to each other the ‘t’ is silent
This was a lot of leaning but the children have been doing so well with this! Keep it up boys and girls and don’t forget to practice as often as possible so that you can beat your ‘word count per minute’ scores!
Year 1: Phonics Drop In
On Thursday 2nd October 3-4pm Year 1 teachers will be hosting a Phonics Drop In session in the school hall. We would like to invite all parents and carers of Year 1 children to join us to find out more about our school phonics programme, how you child is taught phonics in school and what you can do at home to support your child. Miss Schön and Miss Rodgers will be available to talk you through activities and resources and to answer any questions or concerns you may have. There will be lots of activities for you to take part in with your child. Phonics is a huge part of your child’s learning in Year 1 and we really hope you can join us!
Year 1 GFOL Active Starter
In G Block year 1 had to piece together a puzzle linked to The Great Fire Of London !
Class 6’s visit to 1666
Class 6 took a huge step back in time today with our Great Fire of London workshop. We were visited by Thomas Farriner and Samuel Pepys who gave us first hand information about the tragic event and who were both mightily impressed by the knowledge that the children were able to share. We also demonstrated our dramatic talents as the children became the wind, flames, houses and fire fighting citizens in ’10 second freeze frame’ activities. We had an amazing time!
I was very proud of the behaviour of ALL the KS1 children today and our visitor commented on the beautifully calm atmosphere as she moved through our school.
Well done everyone!

Class 6 Phonics
We spent some of our phonics session this morning embedding good practice and establishing perfect partner routines. This is a very important part of our phonics learning as it encourages the children to support each other with their reading.
You did really well Superstars!
