Year 1 - Kingfishers

Welcome to Year 1 - Kingfishers!

Welcome to your class page. Mr O'Halloran is your class teacher this year. Miss Roblett is our teaching assistant and she will work with us every day. We are very lucky to have lots of other grown-ups to help us this year with our learning. Miss Fowler supports every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. 

Curriculum information for the half term

Please read the information below to find out what we will be learning this half term.

In English this half term, we will be reading 'How to Wash a Woolly Mammoth' and creating our own instructions on how to plant seeds and look after a pet.

In Maths we will be developing our understanding of place value (up to 100). We will also look at fractions of shapes and numbers.

In Science we have started to look at changes and the environment. We will explore the features of trees and plants.

In History, we will link changes to our topic - sport. We will experience how bicycles have developed throughout history.

If I have any concerns or problems who can I speak to?
