Welcome to Year 1!

This half term our topic is Enchanted Forest!

 

This half term our topic is Enchanted Forest!

 

During this half term, children will be learning all about plants, trees and environments. We will be reading lots of cumulative stories, where the story keeps repeating. Using these as inspiration, we will create our own stories. Our maths will be learning fractions, time and arrays.

 

In computing, we will be painting on the computer. We will also be drawing maps with keys and using compasses. We will be experts on woodlands and rainforests and will tell you many facts!

Our design and technology skills will be really pushed! We are going to make our own fantasy trees and we will be asking if you could come along and help us in class with these.

 

Our scientific skills will be developed whilst we  investigate different plant growth. We will be planting seeds, identifying types of plants and recognising plants we can eat. We will be visiting the Botanical Gardens to support this learning on the 11th May and will be in the science lab!

 

We will be learning striking and fielding skills and doing more gymnastics. Also we will be observing changes in the environment and much more!

 

Please see the curriculum newsletter for more detail.

 

If you would like to come and help in the classroom, hear readers or do library sessions, please come and

speak to us, we would love to see you!

phonics we are learning.

There is a wonderful website below that is useful for your child and for you as a parent. It has games and information about  feelings, health, illnesses and sections on body image, mental health and much more. There is also a section for you, the parent, to refer to for information on the school nurse and it shows local  Solihull support services.
