Year 1 2019 - 2020

WOW!!

We cannot believe how quickly our first half term has gone. We are both so proud on how much progress the children have made in all their areas of learning.

 Our Learning:

In Maths we have been busy bees learning our number bonds to 10 and 20 as well as understanding time and measuring.

In English we have been focusing on the importance of applying capital letter and full stops when we write our super sentences. We have also been thinking of lots of exciting adjectives to describe the minibeast as well as learning about the lifecycle of a ladybird.

In our Foundation Subjects we have been looking at what a habitat is and what minibeast we might find in different habitats.

We have also looked at the work of artist Henri Matisse, discussed his work and designed our own Matisse inspired minibeasts. 

We had lots of fun on our minibeast day and we were proud that all children participated by dressing up as a minibeast. During our minibeast day the children also took part in our minibeast workshop where they met various minibeast such as:

Marge the Millipede

Charlie and Lola the hissing Cockroaches

Miss Honey the African Snail 

A Giant Spider

So grab your magnifying glasses, binoculars and camouflage clothing as it's time to become a minibeast detective...

...but shhhhh we can't scare the creepy crawlies!

Please note that our PE and Games days are Tuesday and Wednesday
