This week in Year 1 we have done lots of fantastic learning! Our book for this week is The Queen's Hat here is a video link if you would like to watch it with your child

The Queen's Hat read by its author and illustrator Steve Antony (youtube.com)

We did some fantastic drama learning using a Story Whoosh to retell the story where we made the shapes of lots of the landmarks in London that the hat flew over on its journey with our bodies. We have written a retell of the story using fantastic sentence starters. 

In topic we have started our new Science topic which is all about different sorts of animals. This week we looked at wild and pet animals and next week our learning will be about mammals.

In art we have looked at primary colours and created images with collage and pastels in the style of the artist Mondrian.

Next week we will be starting our topic learning about Great Britain!

P.E. is now on a Friday and we will be doing a half term of learning about gymnastics.
