Year 1

Every Wednesday we will be putting your homework here on the website. 

All homework will be set from the CGP maths book and the CGP comprehension book that has been sent home with your child. Please do not bring these books back to school. We will put the answers up to the set pages next Wednesday so you can mark them at home with your child. If you have any problems with the homework, then please let us know. 

Homework- 14/10/20

Maths 

Please help your child to complete pages 16 and 17 in the CGP Maths book. Please read page 16 to your child to help remind them of how to use a number line. 

Extension

If your child is secure with this, you could practise finding different numbers on a number line and getting your child to find bigger and smaller numbers. 

Comprehension

Please help your child to complete pages 4 and 5 in the CGP comprehension book. 

Extension

If your child completes this quickly, they could write a story about the pictures that they have ordered. 

Spellings 

Every week we will send out a spelling list for your child. Your child should know what colour phonics group they are in so please only learn the list that matches their colour. If your child doesn't know their phonics group, please do not hesitate to ask your child's teacher at the door. 

Spellings will be set every Wednesday and we will test your child on the following Wednesday. Your child will be able to look at their score the week after their test to find out their score. 

Homework Answers

Practising handwriting at home

 Each afternoon we practise our neat handwriting. Click on the link below to see the cursive handwriting style we do at school.  The common exception words are tricky words you should be able to read and spell by the time you have completed Year 1.  Try copying these words in your best cursive handwriting. 

              Home Reading 

Please bring reading packets to school each Monday so that we can change home reading books. 

Try to read daily with your child.  Initially, the reading might be slow and sounding out of some words might be needed.  On further reading of the book, pace should improve as should expression.  

Questions to ask your child about the book:

• Who is the author of this book?
• Who is your favourite character and why?
• What do you think will happen in the end?
