Together we will achieve more!
Year Group Focus - Year 1
We are thrilled to be back in school after the half term and we are working harder than ever. We have been overwhelmed by the amount of homework we have received after the holidays linked to our topic of weather. Have a look at some of the fantastic examples. It is not too late to bring in work if you have completed some at home.
In Autumn 1 we had a history focus, looking at old toys and how they have changed over the years. We enjoyed looking at the toys that our grandparents would have played with and comparing them to the toys we have now.
In art we have been looking at comparing Beatrix Potter and Romero Britto. We looked at exploring texture, patterns and colour and created some pastel bears in the style of Beatrix Potter. The children experimented with wax resist and brusho to create some colourful bears in the style of Romero Britto. Look at our amazing work!
Our topic for this half term is a geography focus, answering the question ‘Is the weather the same all year round?’ We will be looking at the daily weather patterns in the United kingdom focussing on Rochdale.
