Year 1 blog
We hope you enjoy looking at our Year 1 blog which will show you some of the learning we have been doing in class.
Year 1 Writing
Year 1 has got off to a great start for Summer term with their writing. We have been looking at attractions in Norfolk and the features of posters. Children then created their own posters based on some of Norfolk’s attractions.
Year 1 Writing
We have been learning about the layout and structure of leaflets. To tie into our topic of pets, we have written a leaflet to inform the public how to look after their pets. We have used commas, question marks, and the children are beginning to use adjectives. Well done Year 1.
Year 1 trip to Synagogue
Year 1 had a fantastic trip to the Adat Yeshua Messianic Synagogue in Norwich earlier in the term. Children learnt the about the important parts of the synagogue and had a chance to look at their Torah scroll.
Children then worked in groups learning about important festivals and Jewish celebrations including Shabbat, Jewish clothes and symbols in the synagogue and the books and hymns that they use.
Camouflage Art
In Year 1 we have been learning about Kalahari Desert and the animals which live there. We know it is hard for animals to survive here and we learnt that some animals have camouflaged fur/skin to keep them safe from predators. We created our own pieces of animal camouflage art using oil pastels.
Year 1 Maths
This half-term children are exploring numbers using a range of resources. Year 1 are having great fun using the new ‘Rekenreks’!
Year 1: School Trip
This week all of the Year 1 classes went on their first school trip to Whitwell. Everyone involved had a great time going on the bus and enjoyed our activities (river dipping and den building). Thank you to all of the parents who gave up their time to help out!!

Last week the children created clay models of themselves holding welcoming messages as part of our work looking at refugees. This was inspired by the Norwich 2040 Figurine Partnership Project. Each class was also visited by a very special guest… A canary!! We learned about the history of canaries, where they came from and why they are a symbol of Norwich.
M and M production – Treasure Island
Year 1 got to enjoy this AMAZING show this afternoon. Treasure Island was performed in the school hall today. It was great to have them back to some normality and enjoying what the school can offer. They all sat beautifully and really enjoyed the performance.

Year 1 have enjoyed writing about what they would like to do in the Summer holidays this year. All of the staff were so proud with all the amazing ideas and writing the children produced.
