Year 1 Home Learning

In Year 1 we have been thinking about our new topic ‘Paws, Claws and Roars’.

This week we read the story ‘Dinosaur Roar’. Tell an adult at home what you liked about this story. You can use the link below to watch the story again.

In this book you will find lots of opposites and rhymes. For your home learning this week think of as many opposites/rhymes that you can.

You can record them by drawing a picture, writing a sentence or sharing them with someone at home.

Also have a go at logging into my maths and numbots.

Chinese Ribbon Dancing

Today is the start of cultural week at Holbeach. In Year 1 we will be learning about the country of China and their culture.

This morning we had a ribbon dancing workshop. Last week we made out own ribbons and enjoyed using them to make lovely shapes. During the dance we became, mice, birds and even dinosaurs.

Take a look at the pictures below. There are also some videos of us putting our new moves to music.

1S Fruit Kebabs 🥝🍍🍇🍌🍊

Today we have been learning about ways to stay healthy. We talked about getting plenty of sleep, washing our hands, doing exercise and eating a balanced diet.

Then we designed our own fruit Kebabs.

This afternoon made and enjoyed our fruit Kebabs. First we had to prepare the fruit. Each group were responsible for preparing a fruit.
