Year 1 Iveson Blog

 Year 1 have been becoming familiar with logging on to an IPad and using their login to go onto purple mash. The children have also created their avatars and learnt how to save their own work and log out.  This week, we explored pictograms where we discussed different ways that the children get to school. This will prepare us for next week when the children create their own on purple mash!  Get the children to show you how to log into purple mash!

Year 1 have been finding out facts about owls. Find out about more nocturnal animals by clicking the link below. https://www.ictgames.com/mobilePage/nocturnal/index.html  Can you find any interesting facts about bats, foxes or hedgehogs? 

Year 1 have been discussing what kind of place the bear from our story might live. The children drew and labelled the different physical features in the woods. Look at some of their fantastic work!

 Year 1 are learning about sculptor artist Andy Goldsworthy who likes to use natural materials for his art work. We collected sticks, different coloured leaves, berries, apples and stones to recreate own class creation.

  We had a fantastic day learning outdoors. We toasted marshmallows on an open fire to spark interest for our new book ‘Bear Snores On’. We discussed fire safety and how to stay safe near a fire.

We compared the number bonds using the signs greater than, less than and equal to. Look at our amazing learning below!
