Year 1 had an interesting afternoon learning about mammals in science! We learned that mammals have hair/fur, give birth and are warm blooded ๐ We were so excited to learn that not only are whales and dolphins mammals, but humans are too!๐ฆ๐ณ๐ฌ #MoorsidePA#MoorsidePAScience
In maths, we used part-whole models and cubes to help us find the missing part in addition number sentences! โ๐ฐโ๐ #MoorsidePA#MoorsidePAMaths
Today, we started a new topic in science: Animals Including Humans ๐๐ฆThe children learned all about how to identify fish and birds. They then labelled the structure of each animal group and discussed how birds and fish are similar and different!

This afternoon, we went on a hunt in the playground for deciduous trees and evergreen trees ๐ณ๐ฒ
The children then plotted their observations on a bar graph and discussed with their partner what trees there were more / less of ๐#MoorsidePA#MoorsidePAScience#MoorsidePAMaths
The threats to the Great Barrier Reef inspired 1L so much that they started to think about what they could do in Droylsden to help protect our planet ๐

In Geography, we learned all about the Great Barrier Reef and the threat of coral bleaching ๐ชธ

Today, year 1 have been exploring the number bonds to 20 using tens fames and counters๐คฉ
The children were also able to spot a pattern! They realised that if they know their number bonds to 10, this can help them to work out their number bonds to 20!โ๐ฐ๐โบ๏ธ #MoorisdePAMaths
In maths, the children learnt how to measure different items in the classroom using a ruler. They then recorded the measurements in cm! ๐
To help us remember what to do we chanted:
1. โFind the 0 lineโ
2. โLine it upโ
3. โHow many centimetres?โ

This afternoon we did some map work in geography! We used a map and its key to navigate our way around the school. We had so much fun!๐๐งญ๐บ๏ธ #MoorsidePA#MoorsidePAGeorgraphy@MrsFoxMPA1
In our first week in Y1, we explored the zones of regulation through the story book โThe Colour Monsterโ. We discussed the emotions that we feel and the toolkit that we can use to manage these. #MoorsidePA#MoorsidePAPersonalDevelopment@MissLintonMPA
