In year 1 we have kicked off the new half term with firework poetry! We have all spoken about our own experiences of Firework Night and created some noun phrases for our own writing.  We have spoken about spinning Catherine Wheels, Dazzling Sparklers and Crackling Fires.  

Our art work this week was inspired by Claude DeBussy's "la mer".  We listened to the piece and created water themed art work in groups.  We are so proud of our creations!

Books and blankets was a huge success and we loved having parents and families joining us to read our favourite stories and fact books. We have received some fantastic home learning tasks in too, with the children creating super shields, splendid stories and perfect pictures based around our Superhero topic - a child in Maple Class has also been awarded a Blue Peter badge too, which is a fantastic achievement!

In PSHE we have been thinking about including everyone and making sure nobody feels left out.  We played a game called huggy bears to help us to remember to make sure everyone in our class is welcome in our games and learning.

In Maple Class we are Superheroes
