First Week Back!

6th September 2024
Wow! I know I speak on behalf of the whole team in Year 1 when I say how incredibly proud we are of how well all the children have settled into the life of being a Year 1 child!
We have been doing lots of fun activities in maths, including groups objects within 10 in different ways.
In art, we learnt how to draw a self portrait using a mirror to look at our different features and compared these to our partners. We then walked around the room and admired the amazing work everyone had done!
We had a great morning in the woods. We noticed the start of Autumn creeping into the forest: sycamore seeds on the ground and beautifully coloured leaves. Our story was The Three Little Pigs and we worked hard building houses out of straw, sticks and stones. In our mud kitchen we made soup like the 3 pigs and we even managed to dig up some potatoes to put in it!
We begun our phonic sessions and within these, we work together with a partner to read a book. Here we are looking through our speed sounds.
After such a busy week, we hope you all have a good rest ready for our first full week in Year 1!

End of the Year!

I can't believe it is the end of the year already! I would just like to thank both you and your children for an amazing year that we have had! It will be quite an emotional day for me tomorrow as having had them for two years, it has been a real pleasure to teach them and watch them blossom and turn into the amazing people they are now! Everyone has put so much hard work and effort into everything that we have thrown at you this year, we honestly couldn't be prouder of the children!
I am very much looking forward to watching the children grow and mature as they move through school!
We were chefs on Wednesday! In DT, we have been designing a healthy meal for the new restaurant, Mrs Parker's Happy Place! We had to make it look attractive, fun and appealing. We chose to make a fruit or vegetable salad, placing it on the plate in an inventive way! We used the bridge technique to cut fruit like mango, apple and grapes, vegetables like onions, pappers and cucumber, while peeling oranges and carrots as well. We tasted them and then evaluated our product for the restaurant. Don't they all look delicious, good enough to eat!
Have an amazing holiday, have a good rest and again, thank you for everything this year, from the whole Year One team!
Love
Mrs Parker, Miss Littler, Mrs Cooper and Mrs Pearce xxx

Last week, we met with our buddies to have a go with their science and DT project involving an electrical circuit. They played the buzzer games together this afternoon and were 'buzzing' about it when we come back to class! Massive thank you to Mrs Mathews and our fabulous Year Four buddies!
In maths, we have been looking back at everything that we have been covering throughout the year in the form of ots of fun and interactive games! These have included telling the time, adding money, shape bingo and many more!
In history, we looked at the history of cars, comparing how cars looked before and how cars look now. We even began to think about what cars might look like in the future ...
Have a great weekend, ready for our last week in Year One!

What an exciting week we have had!
I am incredibly proud of all the children for how they represented the school on our trip to Eureka on Thursday. We had an brilliant time exploring all that Eureka had to offer, including The Senses show where we discovered lots of interesting, facts about how our senses work and how we use them every day!
I hope you all have a brilliant weekend and get lots of rest after our trip!
