What a fantastic half term we have had in class, on behalf of the whole Year 1 team, I would like to thank you all for your continued support that you have given the children. It has allowed them to progress and mature greatly!
This week has been children' mental health week. We have done lots of acivities to help children understand what is mental health and how can we help ourselves and others to have a positive mental health. The theme for this year was 'Let's connect' so we though about how we are similar and different to everyone but if we all connect together, we are help each other and support each other. We learnt how to be still by completing some mindful breathing to help us calm down and relax. We also took part in some mindful movements, trying to balance and focus. We discussed how we could uses these techniques at home to help our mind stay positive and healthy.
This week we found out a lot about prey and predators in the wild. We thought about ways that prey can protect themselves or hide from predators. In our story, Superworm, the hero luckily manages to escape from the sharp beak of its predator, the big black crow! We used spoons, trowels and spades to dig for worms and designed and created some very fancy houses for them!
