This morning in maths Year 1 have been revising their knowledge of addition and subtraction to 20 ready for their gold task tomorrow. They have been completing speed tests to recall number facts quickly and also have had the chance to use a variety of resources to work out calculations. Great job Year 1!
Year 1 had an awesome afternoon at the library! Tracy, the library assistant, read the children a story and then they had a chance to browse the books.
Finally children completed a drawing activity linked to the story Tracy read to them. All children have selected a library book to read in school. The children’s excellent behaviour was commented on by the library staff.
We are so proud of you, year 1!
Yesterday, our year 1 children completed their maths work and an extension so enjoyed reading for pleasure in the class reading corner. We’re all so excited for our library visit tomorrow!📚
Last week, year one focused on the importance of having rules as part of SMSC and British values. The children discussed what a rule is, why rules are important and then completed an activity of writing their understanding of rules and drew a picture to reflect this.
For Safer Internet Day year one learned about the importance of online consent. The children participated in a discussion about why it is important to get permission then completed an activity sorting scenarios into the correct categories.
Year one had a great afternoon in Forest School with Mrs ODoherty. The children made wind socks as a way of measuring the wind and learnt about observing and recording different types of weather using a Beaufront scale.
Year 1 have been learning about how animals change across the four seasons. The children enjoyed a sorting activity then described the changes frogs experience.
Year One have been consolidating their knowledge of numbers to 20, ready for their Gold task. They have used a variety of resources to order numbers, recognise and match numerals and words, work out the place value of numbers using Base 10 and also match Numicon to amounts.
Fantastic work, your teachers are super proud of you all!
Year 1 have had a brilliant Time to Talk Day, yesterday! We spent time learning new adjectives to describe London, then we practised using conjunctions to extend our sentences. Finally we practised using a power stance and a clear voice to speak in front of others. We loved seeing all of our, parents, carers and grandparents for COOL afternoon!
Coming to an Art Gallery near you! Year 1 absolutely LOVE art with Mrs Wood on a Wednesday afternoon. Today we continued our Funny faces and fabulous features topic. The children learnt the skill of sketching facial features and then created a collage using textural materials. Art lead Mrs Chalder visited year 1 and was super impressed! Well done.
