Y1 Friday 13th March 2020– Looking Back & Forth
Looking back:
In English we have edited and published our instructions for how to trap a fairy. In Maths we ordered numbers and counted in 2s, 5s and 10s.
In History we looked at when famous megastructures were built and ordered them in a timeline looking at the year they were made, by splitting them into two 2 digit numbers.
In Science we looked at the characteristics of animals and sorted them into groups based on this.
Year 1 – Pupils’ Highlights:
√ Ball skills in PE.
√ Making our Mother’s Day cards.
√ Doing Zumba for Sports Relief.
√ Learning facts about Sir Bernard Lovell.
√ counting in 2s and 5s in Maths.
√ Grouping animals base on their features and characteristics.
√ Learning alternative pronunciations for ‘g’ and ‘c’ in Phonics.
√ Practising Makaton signs.
√ Ordering famous megastructures on a timeline based on when they were built.
Family discussion questions:
- Which was the oldest megastructure we looked at? Newest? How do you know?
- Say the missing numbers 4, __, 8, ___, ___, 14.
- Why is Sir Bernard Lovell famous?
Looking forward:
We will be writing the story of the ‘Moon Dog’. In Maths we will be looking at length and height.
