Spring Term – Welcome Back

What a wonderful week welcoming back the children! Year 1 have settled back into the class routines very well.

Each day we walked, ran or skipped six laps of the school field, this is nearly a mile. Each day the children have become faster.

This week has been Science Week, we have been learning about inventions. The week began with the children sharing their ideas about our big question. What would life be like without electricity? Year 1 learnt about the invention of an aeroplane by The Wright Brothers. The children enjoyed watching video clips of people trying out flying techniques. As part of Science and Design and Technology, we have been looking closely at playground equipment and how they are made, in preparation for designing our own playground.

On Thursday, we celebrated World Book Day. It was lovely seeing the children in their different costumes talking about the books they enjoy. We had a visit from an old lady and Hefty Hugh who read us the books that they came from.
