In 1 Blue this week as part of our math’s learning we have been recognising and finding a quarter of a shape and a quantity. The children have worked practically in pairs to find quarters .They have linked their learning to last week in math’s where they worked on recognising and finding a half.
This week is Mental Health Awareness Week. It’s a chance to think about our mental health and what we can do to protect it.
The place where we go to for comfort and to feel calm is very important as it often helps us to feel better when we are experiencing worries.
Where is your ‘happy place?’ At the beach listening to the waves, walking in the woods, cooking something delicious, spending time with your family, walking the dog?
We would love you to send us some photographs throughout this week showing us the places that make you and your child feel happy and calm.

In Maths this week we have been looking at halving. We were able to spot half an object or a shape, create our own half shapes and half quantities. We are fantastic at halving numbers using ladybird wings to support us.
We have just started our new theme ‘Light Up The World’ and one of our first lessons was to look at the difference between light and dark in all aspects of our life. We looked at a few pieces of music and decided which instruments played ‘light’ music and which ones were best suited to represent ‘dark music’. As a group, we then composed a light and dark tune.
This half-term, our gardening club have already achieved their Level 1 award, from the Royal Horticultural Society!
Working in the school garden, we are aiming to get some edible produce (fruits and vegetables) planted, ready to harvest and taste test ourselves.
Adding to our level 1 award, we have also officially been given our School Gardening member plaque and are continuing to work our green fingers, to reach levels 2, 3, 4 and 5.
Well done gardeners, keep up the fantastic work!
We have had an amazing time celebrating the Coronation. We made nature crowns and decorated tiles.
To celebrate the King’s Coronation we made celebration tiles as a keepsake to mark the occasion. Aren’t our designs beautiful?
