A Wonderful Week of Learning Through Play in Year 1
This week, Year 1 have been busy learning through play and developing important skills across the curriculum.
In maths, we have been practising our counting skills through a range of fun, hands-on activities. The children showed great enthusiasm as they counted, sorted and explored numbers in different ways.
During our phonics sessions, we have been using Fred Talk to sound out and blend words. The children are becoming increasingly confident at listening carefully to sounds and using them to read and spell new words.
We also enjoyed a fantastic team-building challenge. Working together in small groups, the children used cups and lollipop sticks to design and build their own bridges. They demonstrated excellent teamwork, communication and problem-solving skills as they planned, tested and adapted their structures.
It has been wonderful to see the children learning, collaborating and growing in confidence through play. Well done, Year 1, for another fantastic week! 🌟
