During the first half term the children will be writing a first person narrative based on the character Bunting from 'Lost in the Toy Museum.' Then they will be learning how to write an informative report on the different types of toys you would find in a museum.

World Book Week

The children were really excited during our world book week. The children dressed up as their favourite character and they enjoyed writing an alternative story to the three little pigs.

Maths

Please see below knowledge organisers that show Maths learning throughout Year 1.

During the Summer term, Year 1 children will be exploring many different areas of mathematics using their concrete and pictorial resources to explore each topic.

During the Summer term the children will be exploring  money, place value, addition and subtraction, multiplication and division, fractions, measurement, time and shape.

The children will be counting from 0-100 as well as adding one-digit and two-digit numbers together. We have also been using concrete resources to learn our 2, 5 and 10 times tables.

Children take part in 'Number Club' every week to test them on their times table knowledge.

Curriculum

During the Summer Term, the children will be answering the BIG Question...
