We had a very exciting history lesson this week where we got to visit the toy museum and explore toys from the past up to present day.
It was a joy to see the children so excited by the different toys and discussing what clues there were for whether they were from the past or the present and then how old we think they might be. Some of the children were even able to compare the materials toys were made out of and how that helped us put them into chronological order.
This week in Year 1 we have looked at all different parts of the human body. We drew a life-size human body and labelled the parts. We then had to put all our body parts back together in the right place after they were cut up!
We have had a wonderful week with lots of exciting learning. We are so proud of all these Year 1s.
This week Robin has earned the Reflect and Share badge and Hope has earned Make Careful Choices badge.
Sara has been awarded PE star for her amazing attitude and effort week in and week out in all our PE and Evo work.
The children have been really enjoying using the Year 1 yard and social time and playing with the different equipment we have. Whether it's the mud kitchen, the hill, hoops, hopscotch or just relaxing with their friends, social time is a very happy part of our day!
We have had another fabulous week in Year 1. We have made minibeast hotels in Amy's Garden, recreated the Creation Story and designed our own crazy animals in Science!
Well done to Jamimah, who won our PE star of the week for showing great teamwork skills and following instructions.

Each week Year 1 are going to go into Amy's Garden to do some outside learning. We are going to be exploring the area and enjoying the outdoors whatever the weather.
Y1JS are going on Tuesdays.

Last week we were looking at different leaves and using describing words like rough, smooth and bumpy.
This week in Year 1 we have been looking at how different artists use different shapes to create artwork. We looked at some of Andy Warhol's work, and decided to try and make our own artwork on the playground using chalk!
