Adventurer 1 Class

Overview of class

Welcome to Adventurer 1 class. We are a mixed year 1 and year 2 class. Kate is the class teacher. Sharon is the TA. Danielle and Emma are the ISAs.                  

Spring 1:

his half term our Topic has been all about Castles and Dragons and we have enjoyed lots of craft themed activities such as building and decorating our own castle from large cardboard boxes, designing a sheld and making colourful, fire breathing dragons. 

In English, we have been enjoying our stories ‘My Best Friend is a Dragon’, The Skydragon’ and ‘There’s a Dragon in your Book’. We have worked hard choosing adjectives to describe the dragons. In Phonics, we continue to focus on forming our sounds and trying hard with our pre-reader sheets. 

This term, in Maths, we have been looking at Capacity. We have had opportunities to look at ‘Heavy and Light and Full and Empty’ and have enjoying filling lots of different containers and using the weighing scales to explore these themes. 

In music, we have been enjoying taking part in small group sessions exploring different instruments and joining in with songs and music led by Karolina 

During Learning outside the Classroom, we have been enjoying themed sessions with Pam. We have had lots of fun getting messy and playing with sand, mud and food alongside a focused activity and a range of mark making opportunities using natural materials.  

Spring 2:

In Topic we will be looking at ‘Toy Story’ and all the different characters. We will be reading our story ‘The Odd Egg’. 

In Maths, we will continue to focus on Capacity and looking at Repeating Patterns.
