We have had a wonderful week in Year one and have enjoyed lots of happy time playing on the field, in the sunshine. The children have returned from their Easter break, refreshed and full of enthusiasm for growing their brains. However, they returned to an unexpected scene…a Time Machine had appeared in their classroom! If this wasn’t alarming enough, the children noticed that tables had been turned upside down and books knocked onto the floor. The giant footprints showed that something very large had stomped out of the classroom and that was just the beginning.
What have we been learning this week?
In Maths we have been been mastering counting in 2s, 5s and 10s. It would be wonderful if this learning could be rehearsed at home too!
In English, the children have been doing some amazing writing about the Dinosaur that’s on the loose. The children came up with a plan to set up a camera and see if we could catch a glimpse of the dinosaur. We couldn’t believe our eyes when we saw the video below!
In RHE, we have been learning about the special people in our lives and what makes them special.
Hip-Hip-Hooray!

Notices
An urgent plea: We have run out of spare clothes in the Year 1 classroom. If your child is prone to having accidents, please ensure they have spare clothes with them. If your child borrows clothes, please can they be returned at your earliest convenience. If anyone has anything they would like to donate - it would be much appreciated. We urgently need: white polo tops, PE shorts, skirts, boys underwear and boys school trousers. Thank you so much!
