Last week in Class 1a the children were very busy AFTER ‘THE’ morning which made everything crazy – The morning that there was snow!

A very hectic start to the week last week on Monday because IT SNOWED! Buses were late, staff held up and people stranded at home! After they eventually got into school on ‘THE morning that there was snow’ the children were very eager to start learning on their new topic in PSHCEe ‘People in School’. They turned Super Sleuths and went around school in groups armed with an iPad and took selfies of their groups with specific people they had to find prompted by photographs. They also turned Explorers later in the week in Science when they went out to explore the outdoor area with Binoculars and Magnifying glasses, explored magnets and different lights in the classroom. In Art they are working on their Picasso inspired collage and this week they have been collaging a real guitar inspired by Picasso’s Guitar paintings. They are working really hard on their cutting, tearing and gluing skills. In English they have been mark making and drawing lines using pencils and markers attached to toy vehicles. In Maths the children have been getting familiar with Numicon and started some learning on Shape.

It was of course Pancake Tuesday last week and the children made and flipped their own pancakes and learned a new pancake song!

This week I have included some pictures of our dinnertime as we are so proud of the way some of our children in 1a are improving their eating skills and eating their dinner alllllllll up!

This week we have World Book Day on Thursday this week so check back soon for an update on that!

Have a lovely week!
