We have had a great week here in year 1. We have really settled into our routines now and are enjoying our topics of learning.
English
In English we have been exploring the text ‘Giraffe’s Can’t Dance’ further. We have been thinking of nouns and adjectives to describe a giraffe. We have innovated the story with our own animal that we have described.
Maths
In Maths this week we have been working on place value. We have been using numbers within ten to find 1 less than a number. We have used concrete resources to show how taking 1 away means 1 less.
Science
In Science we have been looking at our topic of ‘Materials’. We have been looking at a variety of different mateirals putting them into categories based on their characteristics.
Topic
This week in our topic lesson has been focused around History and the subject of ‘Toys’. We have thought about the toys we have now and seen how they are different to the toys of the past. We have created a timeline of the different toys: including toys we have now, our parents and grandparents toys, early 20th century toys and victorian toys.
Have a lovely weekend and see you next week.
