Year 1: What We Are Learning
This week in DT, the children have been busy designing custom felt hand puppets based on the Zones of Regulation. By choosing a specific zone (blue, green, yellow, or red) students are exploring how different emotions look and feel. These puppets will serve as a creative way for them to further understand self-regulation and identifying their emotions.
In Literacy this week, we have been learning about how to write instructions to make a cake. The children first gave specific instructions for their teacher to make a jam sandwich. Later in the week they watched a short video of a young boy explaining step-by-step how to make a cake. The children used this information to write the method using time adverbials such as: first, next, after that, then, and finally. As part of the project, the children also took a trip to Lidl to buy their cake decorations.
In Geography, Year 1 pupils learned about Northern Ireland and its capital city, Belfast. They wrote key facts about Northern Ireland, including one famous landmark in Belfast, local food and the weather. Pupils also practiced locating Northern Ireland and Belfast on a map of the UK and describing the weather.
Well done Year 1 for an amazing week - keep up all your brilliant work!
