Canterbury Cross Primary School 
Dove iniziano i brillanti futuri

The children have been writing character and setting descriptions using adjectives this week from famous traditional tales.

In Maths the children have been working on their number bonds and looking at systematic patterns within them. They have also had a chance to participate in an excellent African dance workshop this week and learnt all about Black History Month.

The children have continued to make a brilliant start to the year. We are so proud of them already! In maths this week they have been using number lines and number squares to count forwards and backwards and add missing numbers. During literacy they have been editing descriptive sentences. In PE they are working at becoming brilliant dancers and have been creating some pirate dance sequences!

This week we have been learning the importance of building good relationships with our peers. 

 

This week we started our traditional tales topic in Literacy and the children wrote their own retell of the 'Three Billy Goats Gruff' story. In Maths we learnt how to order numbers using smallest/largest and we looked at ordinal numbers. In Science the children enjoyed exploring everyday materials and their properties. 

This week the children have been practising basic skills in Literacy. We have looked at writing simple sentences remembering to use capital letters, finger spaces and full stops. In Maths we have looked at place value and practised counting forwards, number formation and writing numerals in words. Well done Year 1!
