Year 1 - Summer 2 - Week 6

Date: 9th Jul 2024 @ 8:00am

Well done on another wonderful week Year 1, one more week to go! We cannot believe how quick this term has gone, we are getting very excited for our fantastic summer plans. 
 

This week in Maths we continued our topic 'Time', focusing on hours minutes and seconds. We shared all of our prior knowledge and discussed what type of activities would take us seconds, minutes and hours. We then had a go at telling the time by the half hour and by the hour. We used various types of practical resources to support our understanding of the hands on a clock and what they mean. 

 
In RE we explored the second part of the story of 'Joseph'. We have been anticipating what might happen next in Joseph's journey, and were fascinated by his time in Egypt. 

 
Our highlight this week has been making our very own smoothies during the smoothie workshop, we put all of our DT knowledge into practice by selecting our favourite fruits, and blending them to create our own delicious smoothie.

The children recently enjoyed a visit from Josh from Formby Library who shared all the exciting details about this year's Summer Reading Challenge. There are two ways you can take part in the Summer Reading Challenge:
  • You can join at Formby Library and take part in person. The librarian will give you a collector folder, stickers, and other special rewards, and help you find books to read.
  • Or, take part online by signing up here. Set a reading goal and log your books on your profile. When you reach your goal, you will unlock a virtual badge and certificate. Link: https://summerreadingchallenge.org.uk/join-in
Please note, the in-person and online challenges are separate. Medals and certificates are only available via the library, for those taking part in the in-person challenge. We hope the children enjoy completing the reading challenge and this will be celebrated when we return to school in September.

Have a lovely weekend everyone, we look forward to enjoying every second of our very last week in Year 1!
