Reading Adventures , by Miss Fisher

Date: 9th Oct 2016 @ 10:00am

This week in Guided Reading Year 1 will be reading this book.  It is all about a little boy who recieves a toy bus as a present.  We, as readers, are taken on an exciting journey through the little boy's imaginative play.

Through our Guided Reading sessions we are 'getting good at' relating our own experiences to what we read or what others read to us.  So to help your child get good at this ... play, play, play!  First will be asking the children about a time they got a present and then to talk about the imaginative play they enjoy; it could be winning the toy car Grand Prix, search and resuce with helicopters and figures or emergency vet rescue.

Last week we had European day of languages. The country of focus was Germany. Year One worked on some common rhymes and songs from Germany. We looked at Germany on a world map and designed our German flags. We also tried some German FOOD!! The children loved it! 😀😀😀😀

We learnt a little bit of German culture and found out about the work of the Grimms Brothers. We discussed what they did and why they are famous today. Then...we got crafty!! We picked the Cineralla story written by them and focused on some Art linked to the story! Check out our master piece...

EURO 2016, by Mrs Roberts

Date: 17th Jun 2016 @ 12:40pm

We were kindly given the opportunity to join as a school to watch the Euro 2016 England game in the hall on the big screen. What great fun we had!  We had a hall full of banners, flags and lots of children cheering on their Country. What a shame home time came along before the last goal. England 2 Wales 1.
COME ON ENGLAND!

(What a shame for the little crew who obviously didnt get the result they were after as they were Wales supporters.)

Look who came to visit us today!, by Miss Fisher

Date: 24th May 2016 @ 9:12pm

Clink the robot popped into the Year 1 classrooms today.  We found him to be very friendly and he answered lots of questions about how his appearance.  The children then learnt how to join two questions with a 'sticky and'. This writing skill will help us write our job descriptions to hopefully employ our own robots!

Clink , by Miss Glover

Date: 22nd May 2016 @ 10:55am

In Literacy we are reading the quality text Clink, this fits in with our Key Stage topic Robots! This week the book revealed that Clink is a robot which can do jobs! We have looked at the authors use of verbs, adjectives and nouns and used some key vocabulary in our writing last week. The children decided that in fact, they want a robot of their own. As a result of this, on Friday children wrote their own introduction for job application so they can employ their own robot. I was very impressed. 

I have photographed some Q1 STAR writers-  a big well done!!! 

Money, money, money!, by Miss Fisher

This week in Year 1 we have been learning about money.  We have found a great page on a website with lots of fun money games (address below) but don't forget giving your child the opportunity to use money in real life situations is the best way to learn.

KS1 had a great time yesterday afternoon. We had a special Judo assembly. A black belt instructor told us lots about Judo. Some lucky boys in Q1 had chance to try out the sport with close supervision. In that short time we learnt about respect on the mat and some key Judo moves! 

There will be a Judo lunch club coming to Queen's Park for KS1.  Looks like we already have some professionals in training...check our pictures.
