Y1 Friday 11th October 2024– Looking Back & Forth
Looking back:
Another brilliant week in Year 1- great effort to complete independent work and attitude to learning!
In English we will have written facts about seasons and weather.
In Maths we have compared objects and used the language and symbols of: more, less, same, greater than, less than and equal to.
In Art we have continued to layer materials to create a textured collage and used colouring pencils t draw in the lines and watercolours to paint.
We have published our work ready for exhibition and we cannot wait for you to see it!

Reminders:
Book change on Thursday- please ensure books are in school so these can be changed overnight.
Please continue to read every night. If this could be recorded in reading diaries so I can track progress for our 14 day Reading Challenge.
