" Year Ones Second Blog" (written by the children)


In Number work this week, "we had fun", working in our groups and "using the multilink cubes to work out more and less". We enjoy our group work and are learning how to share, take it in turns and to listen to each other.






"We are reading a book called 'Olivers Vegetables' in Literacy". We are learning about characters, settings and sequences of a story. "Here we are acting out the story".




It's not all work, work, work and we have plenty of Choosing time as well. "Here we are building a 'bombed bridge'. Seven of us made it and it took up the whole carpet!"








"Outside, we played a 'Rocket game'. We had fun using our imagination and pretending to fall in the water"...




..." We were making a sand cake. We used our imaginations too."

In RE, we have been learning all about different groups. " We have a Year One group"."We have learnt about a group of people who are called Jewish people." "We have learnt all about the things that Jewish people like". The bible that they read is called a Torah and "it is a special book that helps them to pray". Jewish people have lots of special festivals like "Hannukah". "Instead of a church they pray in a Synagogue."





"We love reading in Year One". Here "we are reading our books with lots of cushions so that we can be comfy".
