Year 1
WELCOME TO YEAR 1
Welcome to year 1, we are very excited to see all the amazing progress each child will make this year. Your year 1 teachers this year are, Miss Ali and Miss Judge.
This term we have a range of exciting units. Our topic is 'Race to Space', where we will be exploring the achievement of Neil Armstrong. We will be acting out his first steps on the moon and exploring all things space.
In maths we will be progressing to learn about numbers within 20, helping us to be successful mathematicians. Science will be all about animals and classifying the groups they belong to. We can't wait to get started.
In English, we are looking at the story 'Beegu' by Alexis Deacon. This is about an alien whose spaceship has crashed onto earth, the poor alien is lost and alone. We will explore her journey into finding friends on earth and returning home to space with her parents.
