This week in Year 1 the children have started to learn about division. We have been sharing into equal groups. In English we have been reading the story 'Tidy' . We explored the main character 'Pete the badger' and thought about the problems and solutions in the story. Next week we will be retelling the story. In art we have been creating observational drawings of insects using pastels. In history we have found out facts about Christopher Columbus. Next week, we will be finding out about Matthew Henson. In science, we have been identifying garden and wild flowers. Our 'amazing person' this half term is Alfred Nobel. We found out about how he set up the Nobel awards for people who work to make our lives better by making positive changes to the world. We designed our own awards
