Today, Mrs Worsley (one of our governors) came in to talk to us about life in the past.
She had lots to tell us about different things in the past. We enjoyed talking about how life was different when Mrs Worsley was a child.
Tell me something you learned today, Year 1T.
In Year 1, we love Art!
Our class artist is David Hockney. He painted lots of pictures of water and the sea.
This year, we have looked at different painting techniques to create pictures that look like water and waves.
What do you like best about Art, Year 1?
Today, we held a workshop for our adults to show them all the amazing work we do in reading!
We did some phonics activity to show them how we learn to read different words with different spellings.
Then we answered some questions about books. We answered different types of questions and showed our adults how we need to do different things to work out the answers.
What was your favourite part of our workshop, Year 1?
Today, Year 1 had an amazing time at the Military Boot Camp for our smiley reward!
We enjoyed lots of fun games and activities – especially the inflatable obstacle course!

In Year 1, we love maths!
We use lots of equipment to help us understand maths. We are brilliant at counting in tens, fives and twos, doubling and halving, and knowing addition and subtraction facts.

Today we have enjoyed a visit from a librarian! Shah works at Bolton Central Library, and she told us all about the library and what you can do there.
We didn’t realise that we don’t have to be quiet!
She also shared some of the library books with us. We read a story about a crocodile, and a story about a troll. She even had a troll monster with her to show us!
Yesterday, we had an amazing time on our trip to Southport!
We went on a coach to Ainsdale Beach, where we had lots of fun building castles and finding shells.
After lunch, we visited the Atkinson Museum, where we did a drama and History workshop all about holidays in the past at the seaside.
Tell me what you enjoyed about the trip, Year 1!
There has been a crime at Oxford Grove Primary School!
Outside 1T, some porridge was stolen! Somebody broke into our school and stole a small bowlful of porridge!
Year 1 investigated the crime scene and found lots of clues. They decided to check the CCTV.
We discovered it was Goldilocks! She is up to her old tricks again!
Year 1 did some excellent suspect descriptions of Goldilocks to hand over to the police, and they will get back to us when they detain the suspect.
Today we have enjoyed a workshop with Nick from Junior STEM. He has helped us to build our own fairground ride from Lego.
We used an axel and created a pulley system with a motor so that the ride could spin around.
We then used the WeDo app to program our ride. We could make it spin, change the spin speed change the colour of the light, make messages appear and lots more!
This weekend, Mustabear and I have had lots of fun.
When I came home 🏡 back from school me and musterbear had something to eat and got ready to go to my cousins wedding. We had lots of fun.
After my mum and dad took us to a dessert place 🍨 We chose chocolate pancakes. It was yummy 😋. Musterbear loved❤️the pancakes 🥞 and then we went 🏡.
In Year 1, we absolutely love Science!
Our topic this half term is all about our senses. We have been using the log box to discover which musical instrument made the loudest noise.
Tell me about our investigation, Year 1.
We have been learning about the Christian celebration of Easter and what it means.
Tell me about a festival you celebrate, or what you are going to do over the Easter holidays.
We love use Music in Year 1!
Today we were trying really hard to keep a steady beat and follow a rhythm pattern. This is really hard!
Today we have performed our class assembly all about Maths!
We counted in 2s, 5s and 10s. We chanted our number bonds to 10 and our doubles facts, too.
We know how important Maths is in everyday life!
Thanks to all the parents who could come along to watch us.
Today, we have had an amazing workshop in the Life Education Caravan!
We talked about healthy foods, and what healthy foods do for our body. We learned about different body parts and what these do in our body. We talked about why exercise is important for us. We also learned about good friendships, and how to look after and stand up for our friends.
Year 1 really loved their parent workshop today!
We were so happy to work with our parents. If our parents didn’t come, we worked with a partner. We looked at number lines and used counters in groups.
Tell me something you learned!
In Year 1, we really love Science! We loved it even more when we got to do a bug hunt this afternoon!
We were really lucky to find some insects and minibeasts – it wasn’t easy!
We used bug catching pots to have a close up look at them, and some of us were brave enough to touch them.
We have had a brilliant World Book Day!
We all got to share our amazing costumes and our favourite books.
