Term 1

Welcome to Year 1!

We have had a great first couple of weeks in class! The children have settled in well and have been Adventurous Aardvarks adjusting to year 1. We’ve had a lot of Happy Hippos and Respectful Rabbits!

Geography

In geography we have been learning about where we live. We have been looking at different types of maps to locate where we live and places near us. Harmony class really enjoyed their school trip to Dover pier to explore our local area. We looked for human and physical features.

Learning Lift Off

Our learning lift off involved lots of activities to help us learn about our bodies. We had all sorts of activities set up to start our topic about Me, Myself and I.

We used skeleton bones to rebuild a body.

Art

In art we have be looking at Pablo Picasso. We recreated one of his pieces. We very carefully drew a self portrait. We then used pastels to colour our portrait. We cut our pictures up in to sections and placed them back together on black card to create a Picasso piece of art!
