Year 1 2025-26

Welcome to Owls' and Rabbits' page, where you can find regular updates on our news and learning!

Week 4 - Week Beginning 22nd September

Last week we had a special visitor to the classroom, Paddington! We started by learning the story and wrote about the school playground as our 'cold write'. Then we focused on the key skills to improve our writing - Create a simple story in which a main character goes from setting to setting on a journey, use ‘as’ and ‘like’ similes and take your character home to end the story. We will be practising these skills over the next few weeks ready for our final Paddington story. This half term our Maths focus will be Number and Place Value within 10. This week we have been practising our number formation and looking at 1 more and 1 less. 

Our Science this half term is all about the body, we will be learning about each of the senses. So far we have learnt about Sight and Hearing, our next senses are taste, touch and smell. 

 

Week 1 - Week Beginning 8th September

Welcome to Year 1, we are really proud of how well all the children have settled in. We started the week by writing our Holiday news and wrote about the school playground. In Science we drew round and measured our feet and found out who had the longest foot. In Maths we have been sorting objects in different ways. Our Art unit this half term is Colour Chaos, for our first session we learnt about the primary colours and colour mixing. We then created art work in the style of Piet Mondrian and Mark Rothko. 

Meet the Teacher is on Wednesday 10th September at 5pm, come along and find out more about our learning. We look forward to seeing you smiley
