Parts of a plant
This afternoon, we named the parts of a plant and learnt about the plant life cycle.
Don’t our plants look great!?
Can you explain the life cycle of a plant?
1L’s Final Tennis Lesson
Yesterday was our final tennis lesson with Sabia. Due to the rainy weather, we had our last lesson in the hall.
We played loads of fun games. Can you explain the rules to someone at home? Use the photos to help you.
Colour Mixing in 1L!
Today, we had a great time experimenting with pastels to make our own colours! After half term, we will be using our colour mixing skills to draw our own pastel fruit drawings.
Which colours do you like the most? We thought of some fantastic names for our new colours. Do you like them?
Well done, 1L!
Close Observational Drawing
We have been sketching fruits and vegetables.
We looked at them very carefully and thought about the different textures we could see and feel.
We are amazing artists in 1L!
Making 8!
In Maths, we have been working systematically to find all the ways to make 8.
Explain to someone at home how we made sure that we found ALL the ways.
What is 8 made of? How quickly can you say all the ways?!
1L Read to the Giant
Did you know that a giant lives at the top of Holbeach?
Don’t worry, he is friendly!
On Monday, we found out that the giant is having trouble sleeping. This is because he never has a bedtime story!
Luckily, 1L worked really hard to write him a story. What story do you think we wrote?! Jack and the Beanstalk of course!
Today, we walked right to the top of the school and told him our stories. They were so good that he fell fast asleep! Well done 1L!
1L Tennis lessons
Today, we had a lovely time playing tennis in the sunshine!
Can you remember the rules? How do you stand when you throw the ball? How do you stand when you catch it?
How many points did you win?
We have two more Tennis lessons this term. We are looking forward to next Monday already.
Planting Beans!
We have been enjoying different versions of the fairy tale, Jack and the Beanstalk.
On Wednesday, we planted our very own beans! We are hoping that our beans grown higher than the sky (just like Jack’s!).
Our science experiment!
We are also conducting a science experiment!
The first bean has no soil.
The second bean will have no water.
The third bean has been put in the cupboard so will have no light.
Do you think the beans will grow? Leave your predictions on this post!
1L- Let’s Be Farmers!
Our new topic is ‘Let’s Be Farmers’!
We have been busy planting flowers and vegetables in our outside area. We will sell our produce at the school summer fair!
Can you remember what we planted? Tell someone at home all about our growing area. What shall we plant next do you think?
