World Book Day 2020

For World Book Day, Year 1 have been focusing on the author Julia Donaldson and looking at all the different books she has written.

Red Class have been looking at the story ‘The Snail and the Whale’ and have completed different activities linking to this story. They have particularly enjoyed it as we have a snail in Red Class!!

Drawing their Toys

When the children brought in their toys we spent a lot of time concentrating and developing the skill of drawing the toys accurately. We focused on the different shapes you can see on the toys, the different colours and how you can change the way you use your pencil to show different shades.

Making Homes

Along with the other Year 1 classes, Red Class worked on differentiating between different houses by making 3D models of them. We used different sized boxes and worked in groups to make; semi-detached houses, detached houses, flats, bungalows, caravans, cottages and palaces.

Mindfulness Day

The children really enjoyed taking part in Mindfulness Day 2019 as part of Mental Health Awareness week. We spoke about all the different feelings we may feel daily and techniques on how to manage these. The children created wonderful things to show different emotions and discussed with each other what they are good at.
