Class One (Year 1 and 2) 2024-2025
Welcome to Class One!
We are a mixed year 1 and year 2 class. Class One are taught by Miss Lazenby and supported by Mrs Lewis!
PSHE - Autumn 1
We started our learning this term by thinking about the Zones of regulation. We started by looking at the green zone and the different feelings and emotions related to this zone - happy, proud, focused and calm. We enjoyed showing all the different faces for the emotions and feelings.
Maths - Autumn 1
We have got off to a great start with our Maths this half term. We are learning about place value in year 2 and numbers to 20 in year 1. We had great fun using lots of different resources to show how we can represent numbers.
Choosing our Class book
In Class One we like to read books together. We had a choice of two different books and decided to have a vote. We used cubes to vote for the books we would like to read together. Our winning book for this half term is Fantastic Mr. Fox.
Computing - Autumn 1
Our computing topic for this half term is looking at technology around us. We started our learning by checking our understanding of what we mean by the word technology. We were brilliant at sorting some objects in the correct place in the table - technology and not technology.
PE - Autumn 1
We really enjoyed our first PE lesson this week. We were exploring balance, stability and landing safely.
Year 1 Maths - Autumn 1
In Maths today, we have been exploring the number 11, 12, 13, 14 and 15. We worked with our partners to show all the different ways we could represent these numbers and even worked on saying how many tens and how many ones in each number.
History - Autumn 1
This week in History, we have been exploring gas masks. We have been learning about how everyone needed to wear these when the gas bombs were dropped and how the children needed to practise putting these on just like we do when we have a fire drill.
Gas Masks
One of our pupils brought in an actual gas mask that had been used during World War II for us to look at. We were lucky to see how they would actually have been worn and how heavy they were!
English - Autumn 1
In English this half term, we have been looking at instructions. We started by looking at what instructions are and what makes a good set of instructions. This week we have been looking at chronological order and why this is important in instructions. To help us understand this better we made a set of instructions to make some jam sandwiches and then made our own. We got to eat them afterwards and thought they were delicious.
History - Evacuation
In History this week, we have been exploring what happened during the time where children were evacuated from the cities to the countryside. We enjoyed looking at two suitcases that were loaned to us from Bailiffgate museum. One was for a boy and one was for a girl. We looked through the different artefacts and talked about how they didn't take much with them and how they might have felt being away from their family.
