Year 1 have had a lovely two weeks!

Last week we had a special workshop led by Accent catering all about the 'Eatwell guide' and we enjoyed sorting food into their food groups. 

In English we have been learning about traditional tales. We have read the story of the Hare and the Tortoise and also learnt about the prefix 'un' and the suffix 'er'. We then wrote sentences to compare the hare and the tortoise. 

In maths we have been exploring multiplication and grouping counters into equal groups. We then learnt how to draw arrays to match multiplication sentences and have been practising countins in 2s, 5s and 10s. 

In geography we have continued learning about the weather and had a lot of fun being weather forecasters, using weather symbols to predict the weather for different parts of the UK.

In science we have been making the most of our school grounds and went to look at the difference between deciduous and evergreen trees. 

This week we also started a little bit of French! We learnt 'bonjour and salut' and have enjoyed greeting each other in French.

We are also very much looking forward to our school trip to Hobbledown tomorrow!
