Term 1 has been focused around transition for Year 1, not only in our move from EYFS to a more structured timetable, but also in transitions found within our own lives. From exploring how our bodies change from being a baby to now in Science, to transitioning around the school with maps in Geography, Berners-Lee have been wonderful Inquirers. Our work in MFL has seen the children learn the fundamentals of the Spanish language, whilst in Drama the children have been looking at the ways in which we express emotions and how they may change throughout our day or in our dramatic pieces. This supplemented our reading of Beegu and Leo and the Octopus, both of which focus around friendships and communities. Maths has been about developing our understanding of number bonds to 10 and writing out number sentences, as well as learning about greater than, less than and equal to.
I have been extremely impressed with how Berners-Lee class have adapted to their new routines and am excited for the rest of the academic year ahead!
