Year 1 are Understanding Place Value

Mission control, check ignition and go! Planet facts gathered, lift the flap non-fiction books written, space timelines complete and bottle rockets made! Counting on and back in 10’s and understanding place value continued to be our maths focus as we apply our skills with more independence to problems. We loved having our Mummy’s and Daddy’s into the classroom on Wednesday to share our learning. The children and their adults came up with some very creative mnemonics to remember the order of the planets and took part in a “Space Quiz”. I think the adults were impressed by the children’s space knowledge. What an exciting week Year 1 have had!
