CLASS 1


Class1 have enjoyed the topic ‘All About Me’ this first half term. The children have been learning each others names and making friends. They have enjoyed looking at pictures of each other, taken when they were a baby, and learning about how they have changed. The children have been discussing their feelings and discussing things that make them feel that way.

Lots of time has been spent on learning how to use the classroom and playground. The children have enjoyed exploring and playing with the different toys within the classroom and have made some fantastic models with the construction equipment.

The children have been learning the sounds that different letters make and they have been writing those letters on a range of different surfaces and using a number of different materials.

The children have been learning to recognise and order their numbers and have participated in a range of practical activities that have developed this skill.

We try to allow the children time outdoors as often as we can and they all enjoy using the bikes and scooters on the empty playground during lesson time.

During our P.E. sessions the children have been learning how to move safely within the hall space, playing games and using the large, colourful parachute.

Mrs Green visits our classroom twice a week and she teaches the children French and Music. In their music lessons the children have been exploring different ways of making everyday objects and instruments produce different sounds.

In addition to their lessons linked to the topic, the children have been learning about the features and characteristics of Autumn. They have made a large autumnal display.

At the beginning of each academic year the children from Class1 and Goathurst Playgroup visit the local church. We were welcomed by the Rector and members of the PCC who showed the children the different places in the church, gave us a wonderful demonstration on how the organ works and then gave the children a drink and chocolate brownie. All of the children had a really lovely time.
