What a busy week we have had in Year 1! As well as continuing our daily Read Write Inc and Maths sessions, we have been discovering more about Great Preston’s past and researching information to find out what Mining was like 100 years ago! In Science, we have been learning about the five different animal groups including mammals, reptiles, fish, birds and amphibians and have worked together to sort out lots of different animals into the correct groups. We have also been designing our own fruit salads in preparation for making them next week. Well done Year 1!

Week 5 - 22.09.2014

What another busy week! In Year 1 we have enjoyed doing more tricky maths with Mr Tricky Toucan, and practising our number bonds to 10 and 20, and counting in 2s and 5s! In topic, we have found out more information about our past, the past of people in Great Preston village and the toys children use to play with by inferring old photographs. We have also been busy preparing products for a fruit salad in our quest to make school lunches healthier!
Well done to our Citizens of the week: Isabel Lock and Baylee Brown
