This week in Year 1 Evenlode Class w.c. 16.11.20

We have had a very exciting week in Year 1! The Christmas excitement is already upon as we have started to film our songs for the KS1 Christmas Play A Bundle of Joy. We have been working hard on learning the lyrics and creating actions for the songs. The children have been so confident with this that I have been asked to be 'the audience' multiple times! You are most certainly in for a treat when you all get the chance to be our virtual audience too! There are no photos from our rehearsals and filming...it's going to be a Christmas surprise! 

In Jigsaw PSHE this week we have focused on what bullying is and what we can do to prevent bullying. This has linked in really well with our whole school focus during anti-bullying week. It has been great to hear so many thoughtful and caring ideas from the children who have most certainly been Mindful Magpies. 

To continue the focus on the United Kingdom in Geography this week, we learnt all about Wales. A HUGE thank you to Mr Evans for teaching the class all about this country and all things Welsh. The videos were absolutely fantastic and really helped to bring the learning to life through the personal connection.  

In Maths we have continued to focus on addition and subtraction to 10. We are nearing the end of this unit of work and are moving onto 2D and 3D shapes next week.
