Welcome Back!

Welcome back to school! 

We hope you all had a fantastic half term holiday.

Year 1 are looking forward to writing some fantastic firework poems this week in literacy and we will be seeing how many describing words we can use.

We listened to different poems this morning which were written by different authors and will start writing our own tomorrow.  Keeping on the Bonfire Night theme, today we had a health and safety talk given to us by Dorset Fire and Rescue Service Fire Officer John Sweet.  We learnt all about fire safety in the home and outside.  We enjoyed the talk and even got to dress up into a firemans outfit although it was quite hard as we had to try and do it in 1 minute!!  A lot harder than we thought it would be! We also learnt the stop drop and roll method in the classroom.

This week in maths we are going to be using numicon to develop our understanding of double numbers. 
We are also programming BeeBots to develop our direction and movement skills.
