Year 1 Meet the African Big 5

Year 1 loved investigating capacity in maths using language associated with measuring liquids as well comparing amounts and recording findings in different ways. We also began to learn how to add to the next multiple of 10 before learning how to bridge 10. Tricky maths!

In English, we finished off our “ Big 5” fact books and began a new story. This story, ‘The Ugly 5’ by Julia Donaldson is now a favourite! The children love doing story maps and describing the ‘ugly’ characters. More fun to come with innovations! It’s been a brilliant half term for Year 1 and we look forward to an action packed second half of term with sports day and lots more!
