Maths in Year 1

We have been comparing numbers using < > and =.

Then we have been using part whole models. First we were given the whole and had to split that amount into two parts. Then we were given two parts and had to find the whole.

Year 1 – Baby Bear needs a new chair!

As Goldilocks has broken Baby Bear’s chair, Class 1 have been tasked with designing and making him a new chair.

First we went on a chair hunt to find out what makes a chair a chair. These are some of the chairs that we found in school:

Then we used construction resources to try to build structures that were strong and stable.

Then we designed a chair for Baby Bear thinking about what kind of design Baby Bear might like.

Next we will investigate joining materials before we make our chairs!

A crime scene in Class 1

When Class 1 returned from completing their morning run, they found a number of mysterious objects in the classroom.

They found:

  • Three bowls of porridge – one big, one medium, one small
  • Three chairs and one was broken!
  • A baby-sized bed
  • A curl of blonde hair
  • A yellow dress
  • A doll

The evidence was collected and the police were informed but the question remained – who could have caused this mess?!

Class 1 visit Hodnet Hall Gardens

As part of our Science learning on plants, we were very lucky to be able to visit Hodnet Hall Gardens to compare the wild plants and garden plants growing there. We were even lucky enough to be given a loganberry to taste and to pick our own strawberries! Thank you so much to the team at Hodnet Hall for showing us all the wonderful plants that they grow!
