Year 1 Newsletter

 Year 1 have had a lovely couple of weeks. In Maths, we have been growing our brains by exploring different ways of making numbers using the 'part-part-whole' model. We used tens frames and cherry diagrams to represent the different parts of each number. 

In Science, we explored the trees in our school grounds and made tree identification sheets to help others learn more about the types of trees we have at Windhill21. We also learnt about the different parts of trees and thought it was very funny that the top of the tree is called a 'crown'!

We have also been incredible authors over the last few weeks and have been writing our very own books all about finding Spiky the Hedgehog in an abandoned shed. The children have taken up the challenge of including adjectives to describe Spiky and his surroundings. Mrs Smith and Mrs Witney have been very impressed.
