Science

We are learning about the Seasons –  Summer. Science is linked to English this week.

How do we know it is Summer? What months are Summer months? What is the weather like? What plants, flowering tress do we see? What clothes do we wear? How do we keep ourselves busy – what leisure activities do we do      ( go to the beach, play in the garden, maybe usually we could be going on a holiday – unfortunately not this year) ? What do you notice about the length of the day?

Activities

Activity 1: Can you make a Summer poster with facts and pictures? – weather, plants, animals, clothes, safety in the Summer sun, fun activities to do, length of the day.

Activity 2 – what can you see when you go for a nature walk in Summer? :

Activity 3 : Can you design a Staying safe in the Sun poster?

Dream Big Project

Last year Year 1 was involved with this project with the National Literacy Trust. It is about enabling children to Dream Big and think about careers they would love to have and work towards it.

Dream big sheet 1

Check out the link to see how we did the project.

But this year we are delivering it using the class Dojo.

Check out this story about Fire fighters.

Here’s a fun song about careers… Sing along !

Please let your child watch the different videos of an amazing range of  careers of our parents as well as others. Check out the different jobs and post your children’s responses. Enjoy!
