St John the Baptist CE VA Primary School Year One

This week in Year 1, we have been enjoying reading our new story “A Plenty Of Love”. The children have written lists and are developing their sentence writing. In maths we have been continuing to learn how to use tens frames and recognise amounts by subitising (subitising is being able to visually see a number of objects instantly without needing to count them out one at a time). In science we have been looking at materials and how to describe them.

We have been enjoying circle time. In P.S.H.E. we thought about what is special about us. In Maths we have been learning to re-group amounts and use a tens frame.

In year one we have been learning about the story of Farmer Duck. We have enjoyed re-telling the story by getting into the roles of the characters.

In maths we have been learning about directions and have learnt how to make whole, three quarters, half and a quarter turn.
