Year 1: What We Are Learning w/b 24th Nov 2025

 

Year 1: What We Are Learning 


This week in maths, we have been learning how to subtract using the part–whole model and the bar model.

Children explored how a “whole” can be split into parts and how taking one part away helps them find what’s left. Using simple diagrams, they practised drawing and solving subtraction problems, building a strong visual understanding of what subtraction really means.

Year 1 followed step by step instructions to create a sliding Gingerbread Man scene as part of our DT project. The children used glue, scissors and strips of paper to create the character sliders. They used a pencil and ruler to carefully create the hole for the character sliders to slip through. 

In Science this week the children have been exploring the processes of melting and freezing. They were set an exciting challenge: to save small toys trapped inside blocks of ice! 




Well done Year 1 for an amazing week - keep up all your brilliant work!
