Using music symbols

This week in music we have been using symbols to tell us how to play our instruments.   Everyone showed great concentration and Rowan told us it was a "fantastic lesson".  I agree Rowan, thanks to everyone for trying so hard.

How tall are you?

This week in Maths I asked you to line up from tallest to shortest.  You worked out how to do this by standing back to back or eye to eye to see who was the tallest.  I then asked how we would measure ourselves if we wanted to be accurate.  We worked out that we would use the metre ruler.  Once we had measured ourselves using the metre rulers I asked you to line up again.  There were a few changes in order when we had ordered using accurate measurements.

The Cottingley Fairies

In our topic work this week we have been looking at the real story of the Cottingley Fairies.
Click on the picture to find out more about the story.





After learning about the Cottingley Fairies we made our own fairies and photographed them in our class woods.  Have a look and see if they fool you.

Fairies come to Fieldhead Carr

This week a new fairy habitat was found in our challenge area.  We also received a letter from Fairy Twinkletoes that told us that the Whinmoor fairies were looking for a new home as their homes at the bottom of the garden were being destroyed by too many trampolines!!!!  Year 1 got to work writing information texts to the fairies to let them know about the fairy habitat that they could have if they came to Year 1's classroom. 

I have left the information texts in our school garden. Hopefully the fairies will like the information that you have all written and we may have some new visitors next week.

Laptop excitment

WE have been so excited to use our new laptops.  In our ICT lesson Mrs Longhawn demonstrated how to use the laptops by plugging one into our class Interactive whiteboard.  Groups of children then worked using the laptops to create an information text about minibeasts.  Big thanks to Bobby who took the photos of the class demonstration without any adult help.
