Year 1
Welcome to Year 1!
There are 30 children in our class. Our teacher is Mrs Jones and our teaching assistants are Mrs Smith, Mrs Lomas and Mrs Stone.
Our broad bean plants are beginning to grow!
Planting our beans today! We have also decided to investigate what will happen to beans under different conditions. We have put one in the cupboard so that it has no light, one in the fridge so it is very cold, we are giving one bean no water and another no soil!
Making and our tasting our fruit kebabs, yum yum!
Today we looked at the art work of Andy Goldsworthy. We went out onto the field and worked in small groups to create our own piece of Land Art using natural materials we could find!
Year 1 had a fantastic time tasting exotic fruits on Wednesday afternoon!
Using control technology to move a Bee-Bot around using an iPad app and a Bee-Bot on a map.
Today in Science we observed our shadows outside! We went out in the morning to draw around our shadows and then in the afternoon we observed how the shapes of our shadows had changed. We then made our own shadow puppets in the classroom.
Y1 all looking fantastic in their World Book Day costumes!
As part of our World Book Day celebrations we each designed a potato in the style of a knight to fit in with our current topic!
We had a fun arts and crafts afternoon today, making penguin snow-globes and melting snowman biscuits as part of our Polar Regions topic!
Today a Lowry artist came to work with us! We learned how to draw penguins and then made our own penguin models. We also created a South Pole background where our penguins could live, using paints and glue. We all had a fantastic day!
Today we celebrated number day by revising our number bonds! We painted them, drew them with chalk and completed colouring activity sheets!
In our English lesson today we looked at instructions. We ordered a set of instructions telling us how to make hot chocolate and then we made some! It was delicious!
Today the weather was very cold! It even hailstoned! We took advantage of the cold weather to compare today with our Autumn observations. Outside we looked at the things we could see, hear, smell and feel. We all noticed how cold it was and how some of us were wearing different clothing such as hats, scarves and gloves to keep us warm.
In Science today we had to group objects in the correct categories: plastic, metal, wood, glass and water.
