Year 1 - Autumn 2 - Week 4
Date: 25th Nov 2022 @ 4:03pm
What a week we have had here in, Year 1! It has be full of giggles, dancing and joy.
As usual, each morning we have continued our Phonics journey, reading new books and writing fantastic sentences related to our groups story. It truly wonderful to see how much progress all the children have made.
The Nativity practice has continued this week and we cannot wait for you all to come and watch it. The children have been working so hard to say their lines confidently and remember their special dance moves. We can assure you, you will love it!
In History, we had two special visitors come and visit us in school. Florence Nightingale and Jess who is currently training to be a nurse. We were able to ask both nurses questions about their jobs and their training which enabled us to look at their similarities and differences. Did you know that during Florences time, no one was trained? It was truly wonderful to meet both ladies, although one looked slightly more familiar, who knows maybe Miss Jones is related to Florence?
In Science, we continued to investigate the four seasons, focusing this week on the season 'Winter'. We discussed how winter is nearly here and how we need to make sure we are wrapped up warm with the colder temperatures coming. We were able to look at the trees around school and discuss how soon they will be ready for winter, with less and less leaves still being on the tress.
In RE, we started to discuss the very first Christmas by reflecting on our Nativity and the story we are begining to tell.
