Our value this month is perseverance.

In our maths lesson today the children were practically comparing numbers to 20. Children were able to use crocodile greater than and less than symbols to compare numbers.

The children enjoyed their first session back at forest school this week!

This week we linked our science learning to our forest school learning. In science the children are currently learning about seasonal changes. At forest school the children observed both signs of Winter and signs of Spring to decide if they thought we are in Winter or Spring. Although children found some signs of spring, all children agreed that we must still be in Winter

This week we had Internet Safety Day. The children took part in an assembly informing them of all of the different ways they should keep safe when online. In year 1 we discussed this further before playing a game of safer internet snakes and ladders. To move up a ladder the children had to read a way they could keep safe online. When moving down a snake the children discussed unsafe choices online. 

In RE we have been learning about the Easter story. This week we were thinking about Good Friday and the ways Christians remember Good Friday. The children discovered that many Christians eat hot cross buns so we had a go at baking our own!
