Year 1
Welcome to Year 1!
It's Spring 2!
We hope that you have all had a wonderfully exciting and adventurous holiday and are now well rested and ready for the rest of the spring term.
We have lots of exciting things planned for this half term which we are sure you are going to enjoy!
Our Current Topic is – Dinosaur Planet
Stomp, crash, RRRAGH! Watch out everyone – the dinosaurs are on the prowl!
They’re rampaging across the dusty earth, swishing their enormous tails and barring their fearsome teeth…
Let’s explore the Dinosaur Planet! Imagine you’re a palaeontologist (that is a scienctist who studies bones and fossils). Dig deep and discover dazzling dinosaur facts.
Create your own dinosaur museum and invite visitors to see your awesome dinosaur artefacts. You could even do a dinosaur dance or produce some prehistoric percussion!
Which is your favourite dinosaur? The Tyrannosauras rex, the Brachiosaurus or the Micropachycephalosaurus?
What will we learn about this half term?
Our new topic "Dinosaur Planet" will have a history focus. It will kick start with a trip to Land Of The Living Dinosaurs. This half term we will write our own dinosaur riddles, dig for fossils and try and work out which dinosaur they belonged to as well as look at dinosaur teeth and their different body parts. We will create a dinosaur museum for your parents to come and visit showcasing all our work from this half term.
