Year 1 News

In Maths Year 1 have been revising 3D objects. We have made different 3D objects from their nets and then used these objects to help us count the number of faces, corners and edges. This week have been working on our addition skills. We are learning to partition 2-digit and 3-digit numbers and are still developing our understanding of ones, tens and hundreds. In our classroom we do a range of hands on activities and digital activities to support our learning in mathematics. 

In Science we have been learning about constellations and the different phases of the moon. Some of us have uploaded pictures to Seesaw of the different moon phases made out of playdough. The phase of the moon is how much of the moon is shown to us on Earth. Did you know that the moon doesn’t actually produce light? What we see is actually the sun reflected off the moon. 

We have been working hard to earn Joey Tokens each day. Joey Tokens are rewarded to students for displaying our school expectations of ‘Be Respectful’, ‘Be Responsible’, ‘Be Resilient’ and ‘Be Ready for Learning’. At the start of Term 2 we set a target of 5500 Joey Tokens. We are currently at 4749 Joey Tokens. Well done Year 1 on a wonderful Term 2 so far!
