St Peter Year 1
Here are the class with their Easter bonnets. They all did a fantastic job at creating them.
Year 1 created Easter bonnets. They had so much fun creating their very own Easter hat. They used pom poms, stickers, feathers, tissue paper and chicks to decorate them. The children created some impressive hats!
Today, Year 1 learnt about The Last Supper. All children took it in turns to act as the disciples and act out the story of the Last Supper. Children were given some bread and cranberry juice (for the wine). They now have an excellent understanding of the story.
During our Maths this week, we were looking at finding the difference between two numbers. Children worked in pairs to build towers out of cubes. They then found the difference between the two towers and wrote this calculation on their whiteboards.
In our PE lessons, we have been practicing invasion games. This has involved children learning how to pass the ball to each other and dribbling it. The children have enjoyed learning these techniques!
In our Literacy lessons, we have been reading the story of 'The Bear and the Piano'. Today, children did some hot-seating where they acted as the bear and were asked questions by the rest of the class. We also had a surprise visit from the Bear himself!
In our IPC lesson this week, we were looking at where different fruit and vegetables are from. Children learnt where they were from and then put this into practice by working in groups and placing the fruit and vegetables on different parts of the world map.
In this week's Art lesson, we created plant collages, which included going outside and collecting different types of leaves, flowers and twigs. The children really enjoyed this activity and as you can see from the pictures, they created some wonderful art!
In Maths this week, Year 1 were learning about 'one metre'. Around the classroom, they were measuring objects using a metre stick and had to decide whether it was longer or shorter than one metre.
YEAR ONE SPELLINGS
This is a list of the 100 high frequency words which children should be able to spell by the end of Year One. You may like to start learning these words, but we will be doing lots of work with them when we are back in school, so don't worry if you don't know them all yet.
Welcome to Year 1!
My name is Miss Beaney and I will be teaching you this year with Ms John. I am looking forward to teaching you all and getting to know you. I know we will have lots of fun learning and you will all be brilliant.

In English, Year 1 did some hot seating. They were acting as Max, the character from the book ‘Where The Wild Things Are’. Children asked Max some really impressive questions and those who acted as Max did some great acting.
The class created Christmas cards of the Nativity that will be entered into a competition!
In Art this week, children created a piece of work called Green Fingers. They mixed blue and yellow to make different shades of green. They found that if they mixed more yellow paint the shade of green would be lighter, but if they mixed more blue paint it would be a darker shade of green. The children had fun creating this art work.
In this week's Art lesson, we used Lego and paint to do some Lego block printing. The class had a really fun time doing this and it was great to see their final masterpieces!!
Music - Exploring Pulse and Rhythm
In our Music lessons with Mrs Kent, we have been learning about pulse and rhythm. We have been using dance moves, clapping and robot arms to follow the pulse in a piece of music. As you can see, we need to concentrate!
