WELL DONE!!
This week in Year One:
This week in English we have begun to look at a new book called The Lonely Beast. We have been discussing the character of the beast and thinking about why he might be lonely. We started making story maps of the story so we can retell it in pairs.
In maths we have been looking at mass and using cubes to measure and compare mass.
In science this week we discussed pollination and made lovely glittery flower pictures to demonstrate how the bees pollinate the flowers.
In music we have been learning a chant about football and in computing we looked at using precise instructions.
Finally in PSHE we discussed safty in our homes and staying safe. They were all very good at spotting the hazards around the home and knew the dangers of leaving lego bricks on the floor!!!
Have a lovely weekend. Hopefully the rain will hold off for a bit!

Please bring all reading books back into school on Wednesday as the books are used in our guided reading sessions before being sent home. It is really important books come back as they are used across the Key Stage. If they are not returned there is not enough for guided reading in school. Please note, you do not need to bring your child's books in until Wednesday, then the book bag will remain in school until Friday.
Please remember to send your child in with a water bottle, fruit and vegetables snacks are provided.
