Autumn 2023
Festive fun
During the festive period we have enjoyed many activities. We made salt dough Christmas decorations and mixed together our own dough. We also made angel decorations for our school tree and enjoyed our school Christmas dinner.
The Great Fire of London
This term Year One have been learning about The Greet Fire of London. We have been looking at different poems about the event.
1. The Great Fire of London
2. Londons burning
3. Lady bird, Lady bird fly away home.
The children voted on their favourite poem and stood up to give reasons why e.g rhyming and repeating words.
We also done some role play for different words used within the poems.
We have now wrote our very own poem which we are super proud of.
Science
We have been learning about different animals and their characteristics, including humans. In this lesson we sorted out animals based on their bodies, where they live and what they eat.
Slides and Levers
During D&T week, Year One made their own football and shooting star sliders. For our final piece we made a ‘Santa got stuck up the chimney’ lever.
2D and 3D shapes
Year one have been learning to recognise and sort out 2D and 3D shapes. We grouped together different 3D shapes and also made shape trains with our classmates.
