Diamond Class (Year 1)
We have had a great start to the school year and we have settled in so well to Year 1.In English we have been looking at the story Cave Baby by Julia Donaldson. We have been writing some amazing descriptions of what happens in the story and making our own cave paintings!
In maths we have been doing lots of sorting. We have been sorting by colour, number, shape and size. 
In Year one we have been getting very bossy! We had to give instructions to the character Alex from the story 'Dragon's Post'. We created a set of instructions for him so that he could keep his dragon wet which would stop any unwanted fires from happening.
In maths we have been learning our number bonds to 10. We decided to see how many different ways you can make 10. We wrote all the different number bonds on our strips of paper and then linked them together to make a huge paper chain! We were all so proud of ourselves.
In science we have been investigating materials. We did an experiment to see if different materials would float or sink. Before we did the experiment we made some predictions. Some of us were very happy with our predictions and some of the results surprised us.
As part of our PSHE curriculum we looked at the NSPCC Pantosaurus. He taught us a lot about how our private parts are private. We designed our own pair of pants and learnt a really fun song!
