Year 1 have been working really hard this week.
In Literacy this week the children have been using amazing adjectives to describe a setting from The Snail and The Whale. The children also worked in groups to write and perform a news report all about how the Whale became stuck on the beach.
The children have also been working hard in Read, Write,
Inc this week.
Please continue to read with your children and work on their Spellings with them. Please remember to sign your child's Reading Record Book.
In Maths this week the children have been working hard to partition two digit numbers into tens and ones using part whole models. They also filled in missing numbers on number lines with numbers up to fifty.
In Geography this week the children sorted pictures of places in Harold Hill into whether they were physical features or human features.
In Science the children created posters all about time for Science Week. They created posters based on time and how important time is and how it relates to our daily lives. The children took part in timed races as well as working hard to design some amazing posters!
In PE the children took part in parachute games. They had to try to remove the balls from the parachute and work as a team.
In RE the children revisited the the Easter story and then designed an Easter Egg.
Well done Year 1 for an amazing week - keep up all your brilliant work!
Literacy
This week in Literacy we learnt the features
of a non chronological report. We
found out we need headings, pictures,
present tense, technical vocab and captions.
We learnt about Jackals which feature in our
story Meerkat Mail. We used this information
to write a report about Jackals. We found
out interesting facts such as ‘Jackals
have a yipping sound that only their
family members can understand’.
Forest School
Pine class had a morning of fun at forest school. We all enjoyed the dry weather after some very wet weeks. The children had the opportunity to try lighting their own mini fire using a fire steel and cotton wool. It took some time but lots of resilience was shown. Some children built their own pretend fires practising the different structures. Great care was taken making forest people, two children even decided to make Peter Pan and Wendy and dressed them ready to get married. A great morning was had by all.
Maths
This week, the children compared the masses of
different objects using the vocabulary of
lighter and heavier. Next, they practised
finding the masses of different objects in
grams and kilograms. Also, they had the
opportunity to use different scales
to find the masses of various objects.
These children have worked extremely hard and have been rewarded for all of their hard work and efforts.
