Final Week of English

Just like you would have at school, for our final four lessons of English, we are going to work towards writing a letter to your new teacher.

This week you will find out who your Year 2 teacher will be and they are both so amazing!

We are going to write them a letter to let them know a little bit about you and ask any questions you might have. Year two are doing the same English this week to prepare for their Year 3 teachers.

Lesson 1

LO: To write statement sentences  

A statement is a sentence that declares a fact, an opinion or an idea. It starts with a capital letter and usually finished with a full stop.

You will have received a teacher profile in your report pack, where your teachers have written five facts about themselves.

Well… your new teachers want to know about you too!

Task

Can you write five facts in full sentences about yourself?

Example

I have a cat called Meredith.

I have one brother who is 25 years old.

Lesson 2
LO: To write question sentences

Time to think about what you want to know. 

Do you have any questions about Year 2 for Miss Elliott or Miss James?

A question sentence is a sentences that usually requires a response. It starts with a capital letter and finishes with a question mark. ?

Task

Please write 5 questions you would like to ask your new teacher.

Example

Will I have P.E with Coach Callum in Year 2?

What will we learn about in Year 2?

Lesson 3

LO: To draft a letter

Time to start planning your letter.

Can you remember what a letter needs to start with?

Task

Can you complete the sentences to create a short letter to your new teacher?

Dear ______

My name is ________

I would like you to know that I _________

I would like to ask you about _______

From _________________

Lesson 4

·        Capital letters and full stops

·        Conjunctions

·        Adjectives

·        Accurate spellings

·        Statement sentences

If you email your learning to year2@hilltop.doncaster.sch.uk I can pass this to your new teacher.

Transition Activities

Transition Activities

At this time of Year at school, we would be spending time together to reflect on our time in Year 1 and look forward to meeting our new teacher's. This is something we can still do at home.

When you come back to school in September, you will spend lots of quality time with Miss James or Miss Elliott getting to know each other. You might already be thinking about your new teacher, so we’ve put together a list of activities you might like to complete this week or over the Summer break.

·        You could create a Year 1 memory book of your favourite things we did and learnt about. You could add pictures or drawings of your friends, be as creative as you would like!

·        Try creating a bucket list of books you want to read over the Summer and tell your new teacher all about.

·        Write your own profile to give to your teacher to let them know all the amazing things about you!

·        You could use the template underneath to create a new class passport.

There are lots of other things you might want to try to help you feel ready to start your new class. Remember if you have any worries, it’s important to tell your grown ups. Please email year1@hilltop.doncaster.sch.uk if you want to contact Mrs Clark or Mrs Hodgson

Maths Day 1: 13.07.20

Good morning Year 1

I can’t believe it is the last week before the Summer break.

I will post your Maths learning as normal this week, but your English might look a little different. I have also posted some transition activities you could complete to help you start to think about some the changes you will have when you start Year 2 in September.
