St Adrian's Catholic Primary School
To learn, to love, to live
Last week in Science week, we explored time.
We learnt what we can do in a minute, from how many star jumps to how many times we can write our name.
We looked at the lifecycle of a bee and other cycles of life we see in nature.
We linked all the learning to our Science topic of seasonal changes and learning about the months of the year, which we then shared with our families and the school in our Learning Assembly.
The class came dressed as their favourite “book” characters and we shared books with Year 5 and took part in other fun related book activities, like quizzes.
I have started to refresh the book corner to reflect the changing needs of the class and remind the children of the power of our imagination.
This week Year One have taken part in a Toys Through Time Workshop. The class played with toys from different eras and made from different materials.
This week in history, we have been comparing facts about our current monarch King Charles 3rd and James the 1st who was king 500 years ago.
We have been looking at Autumn and how the seasons change across the year.
We have also talked about armistice day, remembrance and the significance of poppies.
This week we have been learning about part – whole models and writenumber sentences.
We have also learned about Guy Fawkes and the Gunpowder Plot.
We have reached the end of a very busy half-term. Its been a great start to the year. The children have all settled into the class very well and we have already made great progress. These are a few snaps of this afternoon in choosing time. Lego and the writing area the being the hot-spots!
We have been exploring our senses and using them to investigate and gather data.
We are looking at the work of artist Vincent Van Gogh. Here are some of our artworks.
We have also been comparing number and learning how to record “greater than”, “fewer than” and “equal too” using symbols.
