Year 1 are having a regal end to the final term with our exciting topic, Castles, Kings and Dragons. We are all very excited for our upcoming visit from Sir Teachalot!

In English, we will be exploring both fiction and non-fiction texts about knights, dragons and all things royal. The children will then use their learning to write letters and poetry, as well as design and describe their very own dragons.

In History, we will be learning about our current royal family and significant events from recent history. In Geography, we will continue to explore the countries of the United Kingdom, linking our learning to kings and queens past and present.

In DT, the children will be learning how to use and create levers and sliders while building their own castles complete with moving bridges.

In Maths, we will continue developing our number skills using the four operations: addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, alongside learning in measure and geometry.

Year 1 have already grown so much since starting with us, and we cannot wait to see what this final term has in store - hopefully some sunshine!
