Year 1 Tweets

Class Sierra enjoyed sorting 2D shapes today in their maths lesson. They decided how to sort them with a partner and carefully sorted by colour, shape or number of sides.

Year1 have been learning about seasonal changes in Autumn in their science and geography lessons. We enjoyed looking for the changes in Dagenham park this week.

Class Sierra have been wearing their #oddsocks for #OddSocksDay. We have thought about respect for others and ourselves in our PSHE lesson and enjoyed designing our own pair of odd socks. 🧦

Class Escort had a fabulous time on their trip to Eastbrookend Country Park. We had so much fun working together as a team to build a den. The park ranger made a fire so we could toast marshmallows and we even had hot chocolate. 😋

Class Sierra had a fantastic time at Forest School today at Eastbrookend. We worked together in teams to make dens and then checked if they were waterproof. Luckily we all stayed dry! Then Jonathan the ranger showed us how to safely build a fire and toast marshmallows. 🌳

In Design & Technology Year 1 have designed and made their own gingerbread men. We then used our designs to decorate the biscuits. Class Orion had so much fun throughout this project.

Year 1 have had a wonderful start to their week with trips to Eastbrookend Country Park with Ranger Jonathan. Class Orion built shelters, made fire and learned how to work as a team. We can’t wait to see what we get to do in Y2.
