WB: 6.10.25
Year 1
This week in English, Year 1 have started exploring their new model text A Squash and a Squeeze. To help learn the sequence of the story, the children stepped into character and acted out the different animals being invited into the old lady’s house. We had great fun becoming cows, pigs, goats and more, all while learning the order they appear in the story!
In Maths, the focus has been on addition facts and linking these to number bonds to 10. Before this, the children were introduced to the part-part-whole model and they were even allowed to draw their models straight onto the tables!
In Science, we explored the words similarity and difference. The children enjoyed comparing themselves with their peers to spot what they had in common and what made them unique. There was plenty of excitement – especially when we discovered two children wearing the exact same shoes!
