Welcome back to school Year 1 and Year 2! We hope you've had a lovely half term holiday and look forward to hearing about your exciting adventures! This half term, we have lots of new topics to explore. Our Pathways to Write text is 'The Owl Who Was Afraid of the Dark" and we may even have some surprise visitors in school over the next couple of weeks!
We will continue our history enquiry looking at The Great Fire of London and The Fire of Nantwich.
In Science, we will begin our new topics on Animals including Humans looking at offspring, life cycles and basic needs of animals and humans for survival.
A few reminders for this half term:
PE will be on a Wednesday this half term. Children should come into school wearing their PE kits on their PE day.
Please bring reading books and reading records into school each day. Reading should be recorded daily in reading records.
Homework will continue to be sent home on a Wednesday. This needs to be returned by the following Wednesday.
