Week 4 in Y1 Farming and fun!

 Hello Year One Parents

 We had a very exciting week last week that included a fabulous Forest School session and a trip to Maiden Castle farm.

In maths we have been learning to use rekenreks, which are a type of mathematical equipment we use for counting. The children are really good at sliding the whole number across. 

In Forest School the children made Farmer's Markets and then sold their items to one another. They absolutely loved doing this and Mrs Surtee's our Forest School Leader was so impressed with their language and vocabulary. Well done Y1!

In our busy time, we have been sorting animals into their animal groups. Painting animal prints, making zebras and much more!😀😀😀

On Friday we made our visit to the farm as part of Food, Faith and Farming Fortnight. Miss Johnson and Farmer Hazel were so impressed with the children's knowledge and excellent behaviour on the trip. 

Another fantastic week!
