What a fantastic first week we back we have had in Year 1. We have been starting our new topic of hot and cold places. Thinking about how these habitats can be and relate to us.
English
In English we have started a new class text 'The Gingerbread Man’. We thought hard to produce a story map and create actions to remember the key events. We have looked at past tense verbs and how they help to tell the story. We have also imitated the story by writing it ourselves.
Maths
In Maths this week we have been embedding our understanding of time. Loking again at what comes before and after in our days of the week and within our school day. We have practically demonstrated the changing of time using a clock to show o’clock by putting the big hand at 12 and the small hand at a number. We have read and written the time in words and on clack faces.
Science
In Science we have introduced our topic by starting to investigate plants. Thinking about the parts of plants and naming them.
Topic
This week we have been thinking about the climate in which we live. We looked around school to find signs of the changing season and created our own season bracelet. We stuck all the signs of spring to it and discussed how the seasons change. We talked about spring and all the buds and leaves that are coming to our environment.
What a great week. We look forward to next week and sharing it with you.
