Week beginning 14th June

Have a look on Twitter for our new challenge "Walking Wednesday"

Go for a walk.

Can you find one thing to match each letter of the alphabet?

Show your results on Seesaw.

A certificate for the best efforts.

(If Wednesday doesn't suit - choose another day! Strolling Sunday... Travelling Tuesday .... Moving Monday...)

Dear Parents,

We have produced some packs to help you with working with your child at home.

Each pack has some materials to help children practice key skills as well as a pencil and lined exercise book to record daily work posted on the school website.

They can be collected from the school office from tomorrow.

Thank you

Year One Staff

RWI week beginning 11.01.21

Everyday the links in this section will be updated just after 9:30. These videos are from the RWI You Tube page. These videos are not uploaded until 9:30am and only last for 24 hours.

Tuesday 12.01.21

The link I am adding below is the You Tube link to the RWI You Tube page. On the homepage there will be 3 sections of videos. Set 3 videos for Mrs Adeyemi's, Miss Wood's and Mr Jordan's groups. Set 2 videos for Miss Howe's and Mrs Hollingswoth's groups. Set 1 videos for Mrs Blow's group. Please watch all videos for the appropriate set of sounds. Hopefully just adding this link will be easier for me to adapt each day as uploading all the videos individually yesterday took some time. Any issues with accessing these videos please email me on doranl@st-osburgs.coventry.sch.uk or Mrs Hollingsworth on hollingswortha@st-osburgs.coventry.sch.uk.

Thank you

Miss Doran

Monday 11th January

Good morning everyone.

I hope you have had a lovely weekend even though there are so many things we can't do at the moment. 

Your teachers have been busy preparing work for this week for children in school and at home.

Each day we will put work on the website and some suggestions for games and activities you can do to keep your skills sharp.

We have loved seeing your work on Seesaw. Thank you for sharing with us. 

Last week all parents were given a code to log in Seesaw and there is a video on the school's Twitter showing you how  to get started. Please check your emails if you haven't seen this yet.

If you need any help we can be contacted on hollingswortha@st-osburgs.coventry.sch.uk

Friday 8th January

Good morning Year One,

Isn't it cold? We hope you are all warm and safe.

Well it is the end of a very strange week. I hope you are getting used to working from home.

If you haven't done so yet we would love you to share what have been doing using Seesaw. (Check your emails for your code if you haven't seen it).

Here is your work for today ��

Hope you all have a lovely weekend and we will 'see you" next week.

Use the grid to compare the day you were born and the day Jesus was born.

Thursday 7th January

Good morning Year One.

We hope you and your families are all safe and well.

Yesterday you were sent a code to be able to share the work you have been doing on Seesaw.

There is a short instructional video on the school website (look in Twitter) to show you how to set up and use Seesaw.

To help you keep up with reading here is a free link to on line reading books. You just need to create an account

In Maths we are continuing practising adding using counting on

In English / RE we are still looking at and understanding the Christmas Story.

Good morning Year One,

We hope you are all well.

Here is your work for Wednesday 6th January.

You could start the day with an Andy's Wild Workout from CBeebies or a Cosmic yoga session from You Tube.

In maths we are continuing to practice addition to 20 using counting on.

For English we will continue to look at the Christmas story/

Don't forget to make some time to practice your reading, phonics and handwriting this week.

Read through the Christmas story.

Can you remember the sequence of the story?

Add a sentence to each picture to explain what happened.

Hello Year One,

We were so looking forward to seeing you all tomorrow and hearing about what you have been doing over your Christmas holidays. 

We had lots of new and interesting things planned for this term and hope we can still share some of them with you online while we are in lockdown.

Parents, we will be setting work daily (English and Maths) and weekly (RE, Theme and Phonics) as well as activities to keep skills bubbling.

Thank you in advance for your support in helping your child. If you have any questions Year One staff can be contacted at hollingswortha@st-osburgs.coventry.sch.uk.

Hopefully we will all be back together in class soon. Please look after yourselves and keep safe.

Mrs. Hollingsworth and Miss Howes.

Anytime

These are some useful websites that can be dipped into to keep skills sharp particularly spelling, phonics, maths and reading.

In addition children can continue to practice handwriting (remembering finger spaces, correctly forming upper and lower case letters, creating clear ascenders and descenders). 

Please continue to help your child with reading. This can be sharing a favourite book, talking about a familiar story, making up new characters or events in a story as well as practising decoding skills.
