Hello Year One,
We have had a busy week. We completed our Jack and the Beanstalk topic as the children wrote their final copies of their magic bean stories. Next week's English lessons will be based around the story Anancy and Mr Dry-Bone, a West African traditional tale.
We have been learning about 'twice as long' and 'twice as many' in maths lessons and next week the children will begin division in the sense of sharing amongst groups.
Each week the children complete their bean diaries as they observe the growth of their beans. Next week we will be focusing on the caterpillars as they form their chrysalis' and finally butterflies emerge which we will set free.
Next week we will be learning another faith story. The children thoroughly enjoyed Jonah and the Whale and can recount the story verbally.
The history topic is engaging the children as we made Tudor masks and re-enacted a Tudor banquet.
I wish you all a wonderful weekend.
Ms Davis
