Toys Museum!!!

In year 1 we went to the toys museum. We went to the museum by a coach, in the coach we sat next to our friends and thankfully nobody got sick, on the way to the toy museum in the coach we sang songs on the way like 'twinkle twinkle little star'. We went to the museum in five groups. Each group went to different places at the museum but we all saw everything around the toy museum.
We saw a horse, puppets, baby dolls and her clothes, toy telephones that when you press the blue buttons it will make scary sounds, we all had a go at pressing the blue button. We also saw toy cars, barbie dolls, we saw barbie's house, trains which was moving and a cuddly teddy bear that was so cute.
Then in the museum we drew picture of a bear, some people drew scary bears, nice bears, cute bears and a cuddly bears. We saw new fashioned toys and some old fashioned toys. We also did a treasure hunt and we had to find some special toys in the toy museum.

Owl and the Pussycat!

This week in year 1 we were looking at a poem called the owl and the pussycat.

Here is the poem.

The Owl and the Pussycat went to sea

In a beautiful pea-green boat,

They took some honey, and plenty of money,

Wrapped up in a five pound note.

The Owl looked up to the stars above,

And sang to a small guitar,

"O lovely Pussy! O Pussy, my love,

What a beautiful Pussy you are, you are, you are,

What a beautiful Pussy you are."

Pussy said to the Owl "You elegant fowl,

How charmingly sweet you sing.

O let us be married, too long we have tarried;

But what shall we do for a ring?"

They sailed away, for a year and a day,

To the land where the Bong-tree grows,

And there in a wood a Piggy-wig stood

With a ring at the end of his nose, his nose, his nose,

With a ring at the end of his nose.

"Dear Pig, are you willing to sell for one shilling your ring?" Said the Piggy, "I will"

So they took it away, and were married next day

By the Turkey who lives on the hill.

They dined on mince, and slices of quince,

Which they ate with a runcible spoon.

And hand in hand, on the edge of the sand.

They danced by the light of the moon, the moon, the moon,

They danced by the light of the moon.

Postcards!!

This week in year 1 we were looking at postcards. The postcards has pictures at the front and at the back there is a writing of who you like in your class and the name was either a girl or a boy. One of the boy or girl had to write to a person on a different table. We drew any kind of animal such a turtle and fish and coloured the water in blue. So that's what we did about postcards.

Busy Bees

It has been very exciting in year 1 this week. We have enjoyed multicultural stories, games and we have used other languages too. We have had guest speakers and we also cooked European foods. We tasted foods from many other lands. On Friday we dressed in our national costumes and we sang to the toddler group.

Here is our video

Year 1 have been very busy this week doing all sorts of interesting things. On Monday, we wrote our stories of our own choice using descriptive language to improve our literacy skills. It was very fun to read each others stories. On Tuesday, we focused on money in our numeracy lesson. We added different amounts of money together and found it very tricky to use decimal places as we haven't learnt that yet. On Wednesday, our P.E lesson was to practice our sports skills for sports day coming up on the 8th July. Thursday was slightly more exciting because we did ICT. We used a progam called MyWorld3 which we used to make a cafe menu. This was very educational yet fun. Today, as usual we did a boring old spelling test and if you were in good works you would of seen our paper food we created. These included carrots, cake and a yummy bag of popcorn. We have loads of fun this week so look out for ART WEEK next week. Bye. Have a good weekend.

in year 1 this week we have been drawing different types of plants. one of the plants were daisies. we found that most of the colours we used were browns, greens, yellows and white. after we completed the colouring we labelled the plants with scientific words. we found this very interesting. the next day we started to plant our flowers in a group of five. we used soil and a plastic cup to do this. when we ahd finnished planting our flowers we gave the cup to mrs simons and she watered them for us as it was a bit difficult. in the afternoon we had a flower made out of felt on our table and we had to name all the different parts of it together. on thursday we went to the ict room. we went on a programme which showed us the different stages of planting a flower. we had a game on the computer which we had to water the flowers and see if they grew. some of us didnt use the water carefully and some of us did. we also moved the flower into the sunlight to see if it grew. today we had some numbers in digits and we had to write them in letters it was quite a challenge! this weeks been great!!! and full of work!!
