Year 1
Welcome to Year 1!
Welcome to Year 1!
Welcome to Year 1!
It’s fantastic in Year 1. We learn in many different ways, including trips and visits, playing in provision and group work. We explore the skills of storytellers, investigators, architects, researchers and artists as we use our imagination and creativity to challenge ourselves and extend our learning.
Mrs Baylis teaches Year 1 on a Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday.
Mrs Thomas teaches Year 1 on a Wednesday, Thursday, Friday.
Mrs Walsh is the class teaching assistant each day.
We start our year learning about ourselves and our families and how God made us all special and unique. When we have learned all about ourselves, we then begin to change!
We become time travellers and travel back in time and find out about old toys, how transport has changed and learn about significant people, such as Grace Darling.
We become scientists by learning about materials and their properties, living things and their habitats and all about how to be healthy.
We become authors and write our own stories, poems and information texts.
We become mathematicians and learn how to explain what we know about number problems!
We even become people from Bible stories and find out how they lived.
Of course we do lots of other things too. We read, we have a laugh, we paint and draw, we listen to each other and share ideas. Sometimes we are still and quiet and we take time to talk to God. These are very special times in Year 1.
So come and see for yourself what it’s like in the best class in the school. (Shh don’t tell the other classes).
