Maths - this week has been all about comparing and ordering numbers using mathematical language such as least, fewer, great than, more than.
RE - this week we have focused on the role of the disciples and how we can spread the word of Jesus and be like the disciples of Christ.
Science - we have continued to focus on the signs of summer and the what the different season brigng weather wise.

Homework Expectations for Year 1 can be found on the Homework page. Year 1 Homework Expectations - SUMMER TERM — Our Lady of the Assumption Catholic Primary School (ourladyassumption-sch.co.uk)
SPORTS DAY FOR KS1 WILL BE DURING THE AFTERNOON OF TUESDAY 28TH JUNE 2022
If your child is isolating from school due to Covid 19, or any other illness and they are well enough to work, you can find their work on the HOME LEARNING page of the Year 1 section of the website. I have been using Oak Academy units as they all contain a little video and a task for the children to complete that does not require you to print anything - your child just needs a piece of paper and a pencil!! And maybe some colours for the art activities! https://www.ourladyassumption-sch.co.uk/yr1-home-learning
Please DO NOT send the work into school with your child on their return, but send photos of it through Class Dojo and add work to your child’s profile. You will each get an invite to this through the email you gave to school when your child was in Reception.
If your child is off school, please inform the office and NOT the Year 1 email or Class Dojo. Many thanks
Any questions or queries either catch me or Mrs Veasey at the gate or email using year1@our-lady.blackpool.sch.uk.
And finally……have a lovely weekend, stay safe and here’s hoping for sun! Mrs Hollinghurst, Mrs Veasey and Miss Sanderson
