This week we met the alien Beegu who crash landed on earth.
We learnt about Beegu’s experiences on our planet and thought of questions she might ask herself about earth. Our word of the week was ‘anxious’ when we imagined that we were Beegu and generated adjectives to describe how she felt as she explored her new surroundings including:
‘Puzzled’ (Lily)
‘Ignored’ (Finn)
‘Worried’ (Cruz)
‘Frightened’ (Megan)
‘Confused’ (Harry)
‘Lonely’ (Sofia)
To help Beegu learn about our planet earth we also made an animal fact file for her, starting by identifying if an animal is a mammal, bird, fish, reptile or amphibian. We have learnt that not all birds can fly but they do have feathers, fish breathe using their gills and that we are a type of animal called a mammal.
In phonics we have learnt the sounds:
ou (shout, out, cloud, found)
ow (flower, cow, owl)
er (letter, better, river)
In handwriting we have practised the letters:
d and g.
We hope you have a lovely weekend,
The Year 1 Team
