Welcome to Year 1
Class Teacher - Miss Wilkes
Teaching Assistant - Mrs Hartley
This half term we are looking at traditional stories. We will be reading a range of stories from different countries all over the world such as China and Africa. We will be learning about the origins of traditional stories and the meanings and morals they teach.
We will also be creating animal fact files and writing poems about our bodies and senses.
This half term we are looking at addition and subtraction. Children will be learning to add and take away different amounts and write a number sentence to accompany their calculation.
We are also focusing on number recognition. We are helping children to identify different numbers and write them correctly.
|Our topic this half term is Marvellous Me! |
Children will be learning about lots of different things relating to themselves such as their bodies, how they work and how they are different to animals, their school and the places they live.
We will be taking a walk around our local area at the end of the half term to look at all of the things we have been learning about.
