This weeks' learning:

In Literacy, Year 1’s have worked hard to plan and write their short narrative a sequel to ‘The Smeds and The Smoos’. The children are excited to send these off to Julia Donaldson!
​
In Maths, Year 1 children have continued work on unitising and have started work on coin recognition. We have learnt to recognise a one-penny coin, a two-penny coin, a five-pence coin and a ten-pence coin. We now know that several pennies can have the same value as one coin. Reception children have been consolidating their understanding of numbers to 10.

In Computing our Year 1 children have been extremely busy!
Our first activity was called ‘Who am I?’, we had to listen carefully to hints that were read to us and think carefully about which tool was being described to use, then we had to cut and stick the correct tool onto the hint.
Next, we were introduced to the ‘undo’ button. We learnt that this tool allows us to remove some of the changes we have made to our document. Then we were introduced to the ‘redo’ button and learnt that if we undo something we can use this button to change it back to the way it was before. Finally, we went on the computers and used the toolbar to make changes to our posters – we were encouraged to use all of the different formatting tools and to use the ‘undo’ to remove changes if we didn’t think it had improved our writing then we saved our work.
