Year 1 have been learning about Hinduism. We've had a Diwali day where we have made Diva Lamps, Rangoli patterns and paper lanterns.
Year 1 had an amazing time during Woodlands Week. We made dens, went on a Boggart hunt, created large natural art work and visited Lyme Park.

Welcome to Year 1. Mrs Cowling and the children in Year 1 are making a magical start to the year. Look out for witches and wizards appearing in your home.

During this half term our creative curriculum topic is Witches and Wizards During this half term we will be reading many stories involving witches or wizards, including Winnie the Witch, The Wizard and the Princess and The worst Witch. The children will be writing about witches and wizards, making graphs about witches’ pets, making their own potions, writing their own stories and painting pictures of witches and wizards. Our first half term is going to be lots of fun and very busy.
Each day children are involved in practical activities to support their learning which is all focused around our creative curriculum topic. The children are always working hard to improve their writing and maths skills. We cover many aspects of writing, such as recounts, lists, labels, stories, poems and information writing. In maths we work on learning numbers to 20, using addition and subtraction. We focus on number bonds and later in the year the 2's, 5's and 10's times tables. We also focus on 2D and 3D shapes and their properties and how to use different types of graphs.
