Fundamental Skills

As sportspeople, our Year 1 children were working on the fundamental skill of dodging. The children played a variety of games where they had to turn, dodge, change speed and direction to avoid getting caught.

Counting Back Within 10

As mathematicians, our Year 1 children have been counting back within 10 this week. In class, we have been reading ‘Whatever Next’ by Jill Murphy and the children felt that we needed to build ‘Baby Bear’ a rocket so he could go to the Moon. We then used our rockets to help us countdown ready for blast off!

Multiskills Club

Our Year 1 multiskills club began this week. We kicked off the opening week with some speed stacking which required the children to put their fine motor skills into action.

Place Value – Mathematics

As mathematicians, Year 1 have been making numbers using dienes. The children loved working practically to help them understand the value of tens and ones.

Science – Everyday Materials

This week, the children loved sorting a set of materials into different groups.

Number Bonds

It is really important that children have a good understanding of the pairs of numbers that make 10. We have watched the video below in class to help us learn about the pairs of numbers that make 10 and we have also played ‘Hit The Button’ to help us practise our number bonds to 10. Have a go at home too…
