  Maths

  Today's lesson was all about positional language. We made small buildings and then thought of all the places we could put a character in relation to the building for example: next to, inside, on top etc.

  Science

  Posted by Mrs L Baker

  We completed an investigation today: Which material is best suited for an umbrella? This is what we did: Waterproof? We will pour water on each and see what happens. If it is waterproof the water will run off. Heavy or Light? We will pick them up. Strong or fragile? We will try to/tear each material to see which breaks the easiest.

  PSHE

  Posted by Mrs L Baker

  We had some great chats today about house hold objects. We decided which were unsafe and needed to be kept in safe places. We discussed which ones were safe and suitable for all and finally we talked about some objects like medicine which are only safe if used properly. Year 1 were very sensible and spoke well.

  History

  Posted by Mrs L Baker

  Year 1 are looking at lots of different forms of evidence to find out about The Great Fire of London. We have looked at old drawings and diary extracts as well as lots of different books. Today, we had a hunt around the classroom looking for objects which have survived from the time. We saw the devastation the fire caused on buckets, bricks and glass and also wondered what lots of old objects were. We found out if we were right at the end of the lesson.
