Tricky Word Writing
Our Year 1 children have been trying so hard this half term to learn their new tricky words. They have spelt all of these from memory. We are so proud of them all!
We would like to thank everyone who joined us for our open afternoon on Monday. The children were able to enjoy lots of Autumn-themed activities with their friends and family.
In maths this week we have been learning about measures. The children were set the challenge of building a house which would perfectly fit the tiny teddy inside and then one which would fit the bigger mouse inside. We used lots of comparative language when checking each time if we had just the right size! I think you will agree, they look very cosy in their new homes!
We have also been measuring mass using the balance scales. We began by acting as human balance scales. Afterwards Mrs Cotton set us the challenge of finding two items which would make the scales perfectly balance!
We enjoyed a lovely sunny morning at church for our Harvest Festival. Reception made handprint scarecrows and accompanied the Class 4 children when they performed their poem. We read 'The Scarecrow's Wedding' and 'The Lonely Scarecrow' in class, as well as singing 'Dingle, Dangle Scarecrow'. Our Year 1 children joined the rest of KS1 wearing their Autumn crowns for a performance of the 'Autumn Leaves' song. (Please take a look on the Class 2 page where you can see a video and hear their beautiful singing!)
We have been busy the last couple of weeks developing our maths skills and learning new concepts. Year 1 have been learning about place value; ordering numbers, counting on from a given number, matching number words to numerals and working out 1 more/less. Reception have been learning how to sort items in different ways. We've used sorting hoops to sort objects by colour, size, shape, texture, etc.
Congratulations to our new Class 1 School Council representatives
Our New Class
Autumn Term 2024
We'd like to welcome our new Reception starters and returning Year 1 children to our class. The first week of term has been very busy establishing our new routines, learning the class and carpet rules, casting our book votes, staying for school lunch and most importantly, making new friends!
We will continue sharing photos over the coming weeks of some of the exciting activities we have taken part in....

Today KS1 and Class 3 have completed a workshop about Poly Block Printing. We have also started exploring the 'Cabinet of Curiosity' which will be set up in the library until Thursday. Please go to 'Events Galley' to see the photos.
This week in Spanish we have been practising a familiar story in Spanish. A video is available on the Class 2 webpage.
