Year 1

Welcome to Year 1

Our Classes

Welcome to the final half term of Year 1! It has flown by!

Our topic for this half term is: The Great Outdoors.

 

In Science we will be learning all about plants and doing experiments to find out what they need to survive.  In History we will learn all about the life and times of Grace Darling and how her heroic efforts brought about the introduction of the RNLI.  In Maths we will be learning our numbers up to 100! In English we are going to be focusing on writing stories, starting with a story all about finding a star.  In PSHE we will be learning all about people who keep us safe and we will be having a visit from the Fire Brigade!

 

 

 

Outstanding Orienteering! Seahorses did a fantastic job! They worked well as a team, followed the instructions and used their map skills to find all the markers. Brilliant, well done!

Sea Turtles had a fantastic time this morning learning how to do orienteering!

A huge thank you to all the Sea Turtles parents who came to Learning In Action and helped us to get creative! The children have produced some fabulous artefacts to go into our museum all about Grace Darling.

Learning in Action in Seahorse Class! Everyone did a brilliant job and produced fantastic artefacts!

Skating Seahorses! We had a great time learning how to skateboard, we were very resilient and had lots of fun!

Sea Turtles on wheels! As if we haven't had enough fun already this week, this morning we learned to skateboard!

Zoolab came to visit us as well this afternoon - what a busy day we have had! We learned all about the animals and lots of us were brave enough to have a stroke or even to hold them. It was fun!

Sea Turtles had fun doing a science experiment today. We tasted jelly that Miss Gower had dyed to trick us! We had to see whether our sight, smell or taste was the best sense at working out the flavour.

Skipping Seahorses - The children had a brilliant time learning how to skip!

Seahorses Learning in Action - Magnificent Maths!! The children did a brilliant job of helping their grown ups with place value and partitioning. Thank you to all the grown ups that came and helped making the learning extra fun!

Sea Turtles have had a busy day today! We had some very special visitors in our maths lesson (thank you to all the grown ups who came to join in the fun learning) and in the afternoon we had a World Book Day dance class!

Seahorses Trip to SEARCH Museum. We all had a great time exploring the different toys and how they have changed. A great day was had by all.

Sea Turtles had a fantastic time at the Search museum, looking at how toys have changed over time. A massive thank you to our adult helpers!

Story telling and potion making in Sea Turtles! DO NOT DRINK THE POTIONS - WHO KNOWS WHAT COULD HAPPEN!!!

The children had a brilliant time building their own stories. They made their own magical potions, they discovered clues to traditional nursery rhymes and made up their own story. We will use our learning from today to tell an exciting and imaginative story. 

Seahorses Learning in Action - Fantastic Phonics!

Sea Turtles wrote their first sentence of Year 1 this morning! Miss Gower was really impressed with their capital letters, full stops and spaces!

Sea Turtles have had fun this morning using puppets and masks to act out the story of The Three Little Pigs!
