Yesterday we had fun exploring different objects and the materials they are made from! The children really loved playing I-spy and guess what is in the bag!
Can you find three things made from wood; here things made from metal and three things made from paper at home?
Yesterday year 1 has a fabulous time making fruit salads and fruit skewers to share with their family in the afternoon. Thank you so much to the parents for coming to see they’re fabulous work!
Great cutting and chopping skills!
In our design technology lessons we are learning about fruit salads still. On Wednesday, the children tried different things that you can have with a fruit salad to make it more fancy. Many of the children liked eating cheddar cheese with apple or banana dipped in to strawberry sauce.
I wonder what they will choose to serve with their fruit salads they make for their chosen guest.
”Wow!” said Anna, “Gold!”
”What shall we do with it?” said Crocodile.
Some children said that they should spend the gold so nobody knew that they had found it. After talking with their partner, the children thought that they could use the gold for good to help others but…should they touch it in the first place?
We are learning about weather in key stage 1 . We have made rain gauges so that we can track the rainfall this week.
How much do you think it will rain?
The children loved practicing how to choice, chop, cut, thread and make shapes from the fruit today. They are going to be preparing a fruit salad to share with a family member very soon. Keep your ears open for a date!
There are lots of dry and spiked things out there in the Autumn!
We have been using our senses to explore the different things you might find outside now it is Autumn
In D.T. we have looked at a selection of prepared fruit from the supermarket. The children were thinking about the aroma, appearance, texture, taste and the number of different fruits in each container.
Year 1 loved hunting for leaves at the park today. They were fantastic at describing how the leaves have changed since the summer months. Many of the children also explained why they change.
Can you explain why the leaves change?
Today Year 1 have been learning how computers work. They know that computers work by following algorithms. Programming the Beebots with algorithms was lots of fun!
