Year 1 - what we are learning

 

This last week of Autumn has been a busy time for the children. They have worked hard on completing small Maths assessments which helps teachers to notice any misconceptions in the children’s learning. They have also been busy with all the other learning that takes place each week. 

Thank you all for a great start to Year 1. The children have worked hard over the 7 weeks and we look forward to all the learning that is yet to come. We hope that you all have a restful week! See you 

Maths 

This week in maths the children have been reviewing what they have been learning. We asked the children to work as independently as possible and they done a great job in completely the assessment. 

Next term the children will be learning about Addition and Subtraction. 

Black History Month 

Children have been learning about Black History month. They looked at the achievements  of Jessica Ennis. Children discussed how she was able to win Gold medals by training and not giving up on her dream. The children designed pictures and completed a whole school dance which was lots of fun! 

Literacy 

Dear Diary, 

This week I have been learning about how to write a diary entry using present tense and adjectives.

From Year 1

Children turned into the role of Beegu and were asked to write a Diary entry on how Beegu felt when she. Crashed landed and what did she see when she did. Year 1 were reminded to use Capital letters, fingers spaces and full stops when writing. 

Science 

How do you know it’s the summer? The last week of learning about Seasons this week and the children have been showing off their knowledge and understanding. We have been learning songs and completing nature walks to recognise the changes in the seasons. As the seasons change there will opportunities for children to observe winter and spring.
