This week in Devon

Week beginning 9th March

In English, the class have been working hard to plan a narrative about a refugee having to leave their home. They have worked as a class to create a list of emotions and descriptive phrases that they will use to engage the reader and show how upsetting and dangerous the situation that their characters is facing is.

In Maths, we have been converting mixed numbers and improper fractions. We have used bar models to help us visualise this. Our use of number lines has come in handy when we have been finding equivalent fractions.

Our Science lesson this week involved naming a range of animals using multi-step classification. Some of the class were so confident with this that they began making their own classification diagrams for other animals! They produced some fantastic work that was supported by their home learning!

In PE, we have started working on our cricket skills. The class have worked hard on their underarm and overarm passes and have been very good at bowling so far!

The class had a fantastic time on World Book Day and enjoyed dressing up and asking each other about their favourite books. They had a good time in the Discovery Centre 'tasting' the books that would be available to buy with their book tokens and the Year 1 class loved being read with in the morning!
