Hello Year One Families
We are back blogging after a brief hiatus! This week has been wonderful! The children fully immersed themselves in our STEM week. The children began the week thinking carefully about who they were going to design their figure for. We talked about what that person may like as a design and colour and the children used these ideas to create a design.
The next job was to investigate the best way to join the materials together. Some children chose a glue gun, others chose a stapler and some chose masking tape. The children tested all 3 and decided themselves which they thought was best.
It was then on to the making. Children used their design to create their outfits. They looked carefully at what they had designed and completed it by adding their logo on to the dress or shirt. They were thoroughly engrossed in this and everyone was so pleased with their finished product.
Finally we completed an evaluation, reflecting on what we would change if we did it again and what we found hard.
In between our STEM learning we have been busily learning songs for our Christmas performance. We hope that your child has been singing them at home to you too!
