We love learning and growing together and would like to share that with you here on our blog.
We hope you enjoy our class blog.
With happy smiles from Amazon Class :)
This week, Year 1 have been learning about number fact families and exploring the link between the three numbers in a fact family and the link between addition and subtraction.
Let’s hear what Year 1 say:
“In a fact family there are two addition number sentences and two sung action number sentences.”
“When you subtract you must start with the whole number.”
“It’s the same numbers but they are moving around in the number sentences!”
It’s always a proud moment when we put learning on our WOW wall in Amazon Class. This week we have a wonderful example of editing and a fantastic piece of learning about Rosa Parks 
This week, Amazon Class talked about the importance of Remembrance Day and the significance of poppies. Each child then sewed a poppy to create our ‘pots of poppies’.
Sewing our poppies required lots of concentration, problem solving and patience, but the children were so proud of their wonderfully thoughtful poppy pots. #motivateeducatenurture #lestweforget2022
The children learnt about the Hindu Celebration “Tihar’. The 5 day festival, which includes dancing, singing and feasting, honours animals and their bonds with humans.
We made diya lamps, tasted delicious food and watched a dancing display.
Thank you to the Nepali community for organising and creating such an immersive experience for the children.
We had so much fun making these fire breathing dragons!
This term, Y1 have been exploring number patterns; telling number stories; exploring part, part, whole models, creating number sentences and exploring thur different composition of numbers.
We've been enjoying the Mind Challenges and loved using reasoning to explain our thinking.
We've really been using our maths minds!
