Exploring our sense of smell!

Another great week in Year 1! 

This week in carousel we have been exploring our sense of smell to continue our science topic about parts of the body. We enjoyed a walk to the sensory garden to explore the scents of different herbs. We have also been learning about Australian aboriginal dot painting, and have had a go making our own dot painting of a snake!

In maths, we have begun learning about part-whole models. We have explored the part-whole model using a variety of resources and then practised combining parts to make a whole.

In geography, we have continued learning about the continents. This week's focus was Australasia, and we learnt and wrote lots of facts about Australia and put them together to make a class fact file!

In PSHE, we have been learning about safety. This week, we explored safety around substances and discussed things that are safe/ not safe for our bodies.

Have a lovely weekend!

The Year 1 team.
