Dear Parents,

Please be reminded that this Thursday 31st is Halloween at Ascot. The children may wear a costume to school and will enjoy some Halloween activities in the afternoon.

Also, with the hot weather, we will be enforcing a no hat, no play policy. So please ensure that your child has a hat at school everyday.

Many thanks for your continued support,

Numeracy: Measure


 Children worked with a partner to estimate the length of an object and then measure the actual length.

We even measured the length of the corridor!

We have been learning about what makes a healthy and balanced diet.

House Colours Day

Dear parents,

This Friday 27th September will be our house colours day. Please remember that your child will need to wear their house colours shirt and their PE shorts and trainers.

If your child does not yet have a house colours shirt then please contact the class teacher.

Many thanks for your continued support,

The KS1 team

Numeracy


 In Numeracy we have been using a 100 square to help with addition calculations. Next we will be trying subtraction from a two digit number.



Science Investigation

 Y2K investigated the question:

 Do taller children always have the biggest feet?

First the children had to measure each others foot size and also their height.

Next we gathered all of the information to make a chart.

The results showed that it was not  always the case and also demonstrated to the class the need for accurate measurements!
