Year 1: What We Are Learning

 

Year 1: What We Are Learning 

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. 

Year 1 have been working really hard this week. 

 In Literacy this week the children have been planning story maps and retelling the story of The Snail and the Whale in their own words. Well done Year 1! 

In Maths this week the children have been learning all about length and height. They compared the lengths of different objects in the classroom and measured each others heights. They recorded their heights on a height chart and discussed their heights. 

In Geography this week for our Wow Lesson the children made and tested out their very own kites. This was also one of our Experiences in Year 1 and the children loved flying their own kites. 

In Science the children learnt about evergreen and deciduous trees. They drew examples of the different types of trees and wrote sentences describing them. 

Apricot class enjoyed taking part in lots of fun outdoor learning during their Forest School session this week. They also enjoyed marshmallows and hot chocolates around the fire pit. 

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

The children also had a brilliant time at the Easter Bonnet Parade and also enjoyed taking part in an Easter egg hunt. 

We hope you all have a lovely Easter Break and we look forward to seeing you all again for the Summer term. A big thank you to all the parents and carers for your continued support.
