The latest Year 1 Learning Update!

Maths: In Maths we have been exploring different strategies to help us when adding. We practised using number facts, number bonds to 20 and near doubles to help us do this.

English: In English this week, we have been exploring non-chronological reports and were able to identify the features of a non-chronological report. We also had a go at explaining the purpose for each feature. For our big write on Friday we wrote a diary entry from Amelia Earhart.

Art: In Art we looks at Vincent Van Gogh’s painting and discussed the different skills portrayed and brush strokes used. We then had a go at experimenting the different skills and brush strokes ourselves.

Computing: In Computing we practised using the ‘paint’ programme to create our illustrations. In PE we continued to explore the different skills and techniques needed to play Hockey.

History: In History this week we researched the Wright Brothers and used a range of sources to find out about them. We then wrote our own fact file about them and drew a picture of the Wright Flyer.

R.E: In RE we spoke about the importance of Guru Nanak to Sikhs. In PSHE we spoke about different scenarios and had to recognise whether the situation was risky or not.

The latest Year 2 Learning Update!

English: In English we have started our genre on non-fiction and have focused non-chronological reports. We have enjoyed looking at the different features of a non-chronological report and discussed the purpose of the features.

Maths: In Maths we have begun our learning of multiplication. We have started by recognising equal groups and now introducing the multiplication symbol to represent finding the total of equal groups.

Art & DT: In Art we have been learning how to print with a focus on nature printing. We have been able to explore printing using natural resources and experimented with pressure and different types of surfaces.

PSHE: In PSHE we continued our unit on safety. We looked specifically at road safety. We came up with a set of rules for how we keep safe near roads.

PE: In PE we have continued our progression of skills in Netball. We practiced the different types of passing and introduced the concept of intercepting.

Computing: In Computing we have been learning how to email. We focused on downloading and opening attachments. We also had fun filling out a spreadsheet and learning how to save documents into a folder.

RE: In RE we had lots of fun role playing the ‘Last Supper’. We discussed the importance behind this event for Christians and the symbolisms within it.

History: In History we have continued our learning towards our topic ‘London’s Burning’. We looked specifically at the cause of the Great Fire and the reasons for why it may have spread so quickly. We showed our understanding by writing a letter from the point of view of a Londoner in 1666.
