This week in science we have been learning how bees carry pollen from one plant to another. We have learnt how plants are attracted to the bright petals and scent of a plant when they land on a flower to drink the nectar. We made our own flowers, and used sugar to represent the pollen of the plant. When our bees flew onto our flower we noticed how some of the ‘pollen’ had stuck to the bees.
In English this week we have been writing our own version of Where the Wild Things Are. We drew story maps to help us sequence the events and verbally told the story to our partner. As a class we then created a word bank of effective vocabulary we wanted to include in our retells. Please come and read our stories as we’re really proud of them!
In maths this week we have been completing our termly assessments to consolidate all of our learning.
Next week it will be our last session at Fishpond’s Wood. For part of the session we will be exploring the pond, please ensure the children bring their wellies to school.
We hope you have a lovely weekend,
The Year One Team
