English

In English, we are learning about suffixes. Year 1 learn to identify the base word and the suffix that has been added to the base word. Please continue to practise Tricky words set 7 as well as nouns, verbs and adjectives. We also looked at poems and rhymes in preparation for St Joseph's Cup. It was wonderful to see Year 1 having a go at speaking in front of an audience as well as listening during the recitation.
