London!
It has been lovely to have the boys back after the Easter break and to see that their enthusiasm and passion for their learning continues to flourish.
As we approach our new topics for the Summer Term, 1W have immersed themselves in all things London! During our English lessons, the boys wrote a fact file about Buckingham Palace, listed alphabetically the different modes of transport that the King may use and completed a comprehension. For our Phonics sessions, we have continued our work on split digraphs.
Humanities saw the boys writing a postcard to Mr Wadge about the various landmarks in London and our Art lessons saw the boys using cereal boxes to create a 3D model of the London skyline! The boys thoroughly enjoyed being architects for the day!
On Wednesday, the boys were treated to a recycling workshop to celebrate Earth Day. They learnt about sustainability and the importance of protecting our planet. The workshop was extremely enjoyable, and the boys took great pleasure in making their own recyclable fish!
During Mathematics, 1W were introduced to the concept of multiplication through counting in groups. The boys have counted in groups of 3 and 5 thus far and are beginning to use language such as ‘4 groups of 5 is 20’.
For our Science topic on ‘Plants’, we have been labelling the different parts of a plant and discussed what each part of the plant does in order to survive.
Wishing you all a restful weekend and a huge congratulations to the boys for a superb effort during an incredibly busy week!
