During our English work today, we learnt about adjectives. We watched a clip of a stormy boat ride and then came up with some adjectives to describe how the passengers would feel. We related this to our focus text for this half term, ‘Lost and Found’ by Oliver Jeffers by considering how the penguin and the boy felt on their journey back to the South Pole. We then completed a sorting activity and had to decide which words we could use the journey, and which wouldn’t work.We all worked well as a group and really enjoyed this activity.

As part of our science work, we learnt about different tastes. We tasted different foods and categorized them into sour, salty, bitter, sweet and savoury. We had a great time and enjoyed tasting different things.

In maths, we have been learning how to compare amounts using greater than, less than and equal to. We made different amounts and compared them using the symbols.

Last week, our lovely year ones were finally able to go on their trip to the Love2Stay beach! After being postponed due to the heat wave in the Summer, they certainly made the most of their time there. They were able to paddle in the water, play in the sand and have a go on all of the amazing play equipment. The sun even came out for us!
