Miss Killeen, Year 1 have missed you very much this week and they have not stopped asking how you are. This afternoon we decided to send you a ‘get well soon’ message as we are all hoping you make a speedy recovery!

Lots of love from Year 1

Year 1 were invited to the woodland area to help plant some bulbs. Mr Worthington and Mr Davies showed us the bulbs and explained that in Spring the bulbs will grow into daffodils. We put four bulbs in each hole and helped to cover them over with soil. We are very excited to wait and see the daffodils grow!

George was very proud of his pumpkin! He brought it in from home and showed the rest of the class. We all thought your pumpkin was super George, well done!

Sienna found an orange ladybird on the path while we were running the daily mile. We were worried it might get hurt on the path so Sienna decided to put it on a leaf to keep it safe.

We talked about giving computers instructions to follow. Year 1 turned into robots and their partners had to give them instructions to help them move around the playground. I was very impressed with the instructions you all gave Year 1 well done!

George and Isobel in Year 1 made some fantastic pumpkins at home, they very kindly brought them in to class to show us. We really liked George’s colourful pumpkin and Isobel’s cat face pumpkin. Super carving!

Winnie the Witch asked Year 1 to help her fix her broken broomstick. We decided to make a ‘broom fixing’ potion and added a little bit of our own magic. After that we wrote down the potion recipe for Winnie to try.

In maths this week we have been measuring. We started by using cubes to measure classroom objects.
