Year 1 have had a busy couple of weeks. We have started a new topic in English - Poetry! We stared by acting out and performing some poems. We then explored rhyming and similes. We are working as hard as ants! We have had a go writing our own poems which we will be bringing home at the end of this week. In Maths, we have learnt about numbers 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50. We are looking at how to represent numbers using tens and ones. In Science, we are learning about carnivores, herbivores and omnivores. We have learnt what the difference is between these animals, and we have had a go 'feeding' the animals their food. This week we have swum like dolphins as we have started swimming lessons! 

We are really looking forward to our trip to Brooklands on Thursday. We can't wait to tell you all about it!
