Year 1 2019 - 2020

We have been looking at relationships in our PSHRE lessons and have been finding out what makes a good friend. We read the story 'On Sudden Hill' which is a story about one boy's struggles when a new boy comes to play with him and his best friend. The boys in the story have lots of fun playing with their cardboard boxes so we had an afternoon of sharing and playing together with our boxes. 

Year 1 travelled back in time to find out what school would have been like in the past. We all dressed up as Victorian school children and we spent the morning sitting very quietly in rows, writing and doing sums on slates. Our teachers dressed up too and were very strict! In the afternoon we learned some old fashioned games and songs and made Victorian children puppets.

Year 1 have been looking at the history of our own families this term as part of our Ethical Enterprise topic 'Age Uk'. We used our watercolours to create a family tree. We then researched interesting facts about different members of our families and found out that one of our grandparents had once guarded the queen!
