Diamond Class (Year 1)

Diamond Class have been enjoying some excellent things this half term!

We have loved our first few weeks of Forest School! We have peeled willow sticks to make wands, been bird watching, got very muddy and had a fantastic time on the swing. We can't wait for the campfire at the end of the half term!

Everyone looked amazing for World Book Day!

 Everyone has been working very hard since returning after the Christmas break and the children have produced some fantastic work! 

We are learning about explorers this term and will discover why people chose to explore through history. The children have asked some fantastic questions and are really showing their understanding of how the past was different.

This term, we are investigating sculptures and learning new techniques to help us create our own art work. We are looking forward to creating some exciting things! 

We have had a very busy start to the term, with lots of writing, art, music and other learning to be done. The children have shown that they are ready to take on new challenges and are working hard to meet their goals. 

We have been investigating different materials and their properties in our Science lessons. We investigated which material would make the best umbrella for Ted so that he could play outside in the rain. It was great fun and we loved recording our own results. 

Everyone looked amazing in their Children in Need outfits.

We have been reading the book 'Supertato' and it has really caught our imaginations! The children have worked really hard and produced some excellent descriptive writing.

 Welcome to Diamond Class! Everyone has been so excited to start Year One and the children have been settling in to their new routines.

We have started the year with some really exciting new topics in all of our subjects. Our class is very creative and we have produced lots of fantastic art work so far. 

We started the year by learning to retell the story of The Three Little Pigs, which we really enjoyed acting out!

We have also read The Queen's Hat, which we really loved (especially the little corgi and butler who were chasing the Queen and her hat). We have written some brilliant post cards from the hat telling others about his wonderful adventures in London!
