Year 1 Week Beginning 16.9.24

/in , /by

Year 1 began the week with an online road safety workshop with our local road safety officer, Colette. She focussed on the following:

  • Walking for health and fitness
  • The pavement being the safest part of the street
  • How to cross the road safely
  • Being seen by drivers

This was then followed by a class discussion about their own experiences of keeping safe.

 

This week in Maths, the children have been learning to:

  • represent objects, using manipulatives, recognise numbers as words, count on from any number, say a number that is 1 more than any given number
  • apply their maths skills to problem-solving and reasoning questions

In Science this week the children have continued their learning on the human body. Part of the lesson involved working in teams against the clock, labelling the different body parts of a group member!

In English, the children continued to focus on themes arising from the story ‘Beegu’ by Alexis Deacon. During guided writing, they wrote letters to the unpopular teacher in the book. (see picture below!)

We would like to develop our map display in class, showing where in the world our Year 1 families originate from; please could you write down this information for your child to bring in? Thank you!

Wishing you all a wonderful weekend,

Ms Pemberton and the Year 1 team
