Year 1 have been thinking about how we can keep our mind healthy and to recognise our big feelings. We have learnt some different tools to help with this including breath work, calm music, creativity, movement and singing #ChildrensMentalHealthWeek

We loved our walk of the local area. The children were excellent at spotting different aspects of the local environment, physical and human features. We had a great day! @JanJconley @StFinbarsSch

This week, Year 1 have been using the prefix un- to change the meaning of words. This has been the focus for our sentence accuracy, the children have done a great job! #stfinbarsenglish @LiteracyCounts1 @StFinbarsSch @JanJconley

Year 1 have had a problem with magic spiders. We wrote a class set of instructions - How to Catch a Spider. Last night we set a trap, it didn’t work! Today will write our own instructions to try catch the pesky spiders! #stfinbarsenglish @LiteracyCounts1 @StFinbarsSch @JanJconley

This week, we have enjoyed a range of poems, some silly, some active and some that made us think. We read the poem At My House and thought of all the things that we love about our homes, writing up our own. #NationalPoetryDay2023 @StFinbarsSch @JanJconley

When Mrs Conely announces over the tannoy that you have 100% attendance, you stop what you’re doing and do the attendance dance! @StFinbarsSch @JanJconley

We have been counting in 2’s, 5’s and 10’s. Today we used our skills to tally how many cars drove past our school, how many do you think we saw in 5 minutes? #stfinbarsmathematicians @StFinbarsSch @JanJconley
