Welcome to Year 1!

Dance Extravaganza on Thursday - please make sure your child comes to Braywick Leisure Centre (drop off 8:00-8:30am) wearing a plain black t-shirt, black joggers/leggings and their school jumper/mid-layer. Remember a packed lunch if you have not ordered a grab bag!

Maths:

This week we have been working on mass, volume and capacity. The children have had a great time using balance scales to weigh objects, and getting to play with the water to explore full and empty!

Writing:

We wrote our first few sentences of our book 'Museum Treasures', some excellent recall of our trip and trying to write trickier sentences.

Reading:

We continued our chapter book 'Hotel Flamingo'. It is a longer book than we have read previously, but we are all excited to meet the animals in the hotel. This week we have been hearing about the practices of the flamingo show to promote Hotel Flamingo.

Big Picture:

This week we made our clay masks, we all made a bear holding a fish in his mouth. There was some amazing work, where the children were problem solving and showing great resilience when things didn't go right!

RE and PSHE/P4C:

In PSHE this week we have been looking at how we feel when we have a falling out with a friend, including good ways to find solutions.

In RE, we have been learning about how Jesus brings peace. We thought about how we can show peace by helping others, and areas around the school that help us feel peaceful.

PE days:

Monday and Wednesday.
