Year 1- What we have been learning

 


A BIG thank you to all those parents that attended our Stay and learn. We really enjoyed listening to the children talk to you about what they have been learning. It gives us great confidence that they are getting ready for Year 2. We hope that you found the session informative and if you have any questions please contact  your child's teacher. 





What an exciting week we have had! The children had a blast making and decorating their cakes this week. They all completed the cooking with confidence and loved weighing out the ingredients and decorating with their favourite toppings. Oh, and of course the children loved eating their creations too!


Although we have only a few weeks left of school, please keep reading with your children and signing their reading records. 
Thank you 

Maths 

This week in Math the children have been learning about time, using time language like before, after, next and finally. They also looked at the days of the week and months of the year. 
Example: ' If today is Monday then what was the day yesterday?"

Children were asked to design a cake and label what they wanted to use. They all done a great job and designed some delicious cakes. They were also asked to write a descriptive sentence on what they wanted the cake too taste like.
