Welcome to First Class 23/24

​Autumn Walk

In Geography we learned all about the seasonal changes associated with autumn. We went for an autumn walk to Mundy's field where we identified signs of autumn in the environment. We collected autumn leaves, conkers, beech nuts, acorns and helicopter keys.

Maths Week 2023

We had great fun during Maths week. We played 'Maths Bingo' each day, solved the 'Principal's Puzzles', played number games with playing cards and enjoyed making 3D constructions from 2D polydrons and Magnatiles.

Art lessons

​In art we experimented with mixing colours to produce new colours and a variety of tones of the same colour. We then used what we learned to create landscape pictures, 'The Yellow Submarine' paintings and Halloween silhouettes.

Co-operative play

Earlier in the term we spent several afternoons engaged in co-operative and creative play. We worked in groups to complete jigsaws, play Maths and language games and create imaginative pieces using Lego, Sticklebricks and K'nex.

Science lessons

In Science we learned all about how a submarine works. We then carried out experiments to establish which materials float and sink. Also this half-term in Science, we studied the effects of friction and explored our five senses.
