We didn’t let the rainy weather put us off our outdoor learning this week. We decided we would have a go at telling the story of the Three Little Pigs ourselves and, after we had collected some natural materials, we worked in teams to create some fantastic collages of the three different houses. We had our snack in the shelter in the woods and sang some rainy day songs. The rain water came in very handy for washing our hands!
During art, we learnt about hot and cold colours and how they can influence our feelings. We then learnt how to create a colourwash using the 'hot' colours red, yellow and orange. Next week we are going to do the same for cold colours!
Tiger-tastic Week!

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 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.
At the end of our PE session, we tested our new running track out by jogging, running or walking around! We know we are going to have lots of fun on this over the year!
After such a busy week, we hope you all have a good rest ready for our first full week in Year 1!

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 Tuesday! 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, Mrs McLoughlin, Mrs Robertson, Mrs Cooper and Mrs Pearce xxx

What a fantastic Key Stage One sports day we have had today! We are so proud of all the children who completed all the races, despite the weather! A massive thank you to the house captain's and vice captain's from Year Six, who came and helped us out by adding up the scores, deciding on the order each child came in the race and setting up the various races that we did. The races we did were:
Caterpillar Race
Shuttle Race
Javelin
Obstacle Race
Sprint
Shot Putt
Caterpillar Race
Here are some photos from the day:
Have a lovely weekend, ready for the last week in Year One!
