What a way to end the half term! We have had lots going on in Year 1 this week. We started the week by having an intruder in our classroom. We used the clues left in our classroom and descriptions from eyewitnesses to create a wanted poster for the beast.
It was Safer Internet Day on Tuesday and we enjoyed creating our own avatars for an online game, including usernames and passwords. We discussed why we have to keep certain pieces of information private whilst being online.
It was also Children’s Mental Health Week this week. This year’s theme was ‘Growing Together’. We used the story of The Very Hungry Caterpillar to show how the caterpillar grew both physically and mentally, into a beautiful butterfly. We also created some stars to show our goals and aspirations for when we grow up.
After half term, we will be focusing on toys in History. If you have any older toys you wish to share with the class, please feel free to bring them in. Here’s the curriculum overview so you can check out what else we will be learning about in Spring 2.
Have a restful half term and enjoy the break,
Miss Battams 🙂
