Y1 Friday 4th October 2024– Looking Back & Forth
Looking back:
What a week in Year 1- brilliant effort and learning by all!
In Maths we have counted on before finding one more of a given number. We have begun to count backwards using number tracks.
In English we have written facts about Frida Kahlo- ready for exhibition.
In Science we have put our senses to the test.
In Art we have used colouring pencils and water colours to create masterpieces for exhibition.
We have working with Miss Goldsmith to create silhouettes based on Peter Pan. The whole class now want to be an artist when they grow up.

Looking forward:
Next week we will continue to publish our work for exhibition.
In Maths we will be finding one less than a given number. We will be comparing numbers using language of ‘same, fewer, more’ before moving onto the language of ‘more than, less than and equal to’.
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.
Just to clarify- Reading challenges are counted up every Thursday during book change and then awarded on Friday (backdated if awarded before that). We celebrate this achievement as a class all together.
