King's Ford Infant School And Nursery
Welcome to Yellow Class!
Welcome to Year 1
Who were the Romans?
Happy New Term!
I am Mrs. Canham, I teach the Yellow Class from Monday to Thursday. Mrs. Scott teaches on Friday. Miss. Ayliffe and Mrs. Nielson are the Learning Support Assistants.
We are always available to speak to at the end of the day. If you would prefer you can email us or make an appointment.
Our block theme is History. The question we will be asking is 'Who were the Romans?’
As Colchester is a Roman town, we will be exploring what they left behind for us to see. We are walking to the Roman Circus as part of our work. Going to the castle or looking at the Roman walls around the town would be as a nice trip out and about and a great starting point.
We will be exploring life in Roman times and comparing it with our lives now. There are some ideas for things that you might like to do at home on our homework sheet. You can either bring homework in or send in a photograph.
In Science, we are learning about everyday materials.
In art we will be making shields, banners and mosaics.
Everyday Matters
-
The children need to bring a water bottle to school every day. They can drink from it whenever they need to.
-
Please send a book bag in every day. We write messages in the home school book, you are welcome to add messages too. We have a reading challenge in the class. The children collect certificates when they have read at home.
-
Your child will need a P.E bag with shorts, tee shirt and plimsolls. They will also need a coat whatever the weather as we make full use of our outdoor learning areas.
Please make sure you have your name written your child’s name on everything so that nothing gets lost.
Here are some things you might like to be doing at home.
Look at the homework sheet for this block and choose something that you would like to do.
Talk to your family about what you are learning at school.
Read a book from school or from home. Share it with someone at home, talk about the pictures and what you are finding out.
Practise reading and writing the words in the middle of your home school contact book. You could copy them out and make flashcards.
Go to the ictgames website or topmarks Maths to play maths games for areas that we have worked on together.
We look forward to working with you and your children. Please don’t hesitate to contact us if you require any help or information.
We look forward to working with you and your child throughout the year.
