Virtual Mosque Tour
Peter Dalrymple (PDalrymple) on: Year 1 Class Blog
This week, as part of our RE learning about Muslims, Year 1 enjoyed taking a virtual tour around three different mosques from around the world. They visited Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque in Abu Dhabi, Nasir-al-Mulk Mosque in Iran and Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque in Oman all from the comfort of our classroom.They could spot the dome, minaret, prayer mats and mihrab that can be found in most mosques. All of the children agreed that the mosques were amazing places of worship and showed good mastery of the VR headsets!
Puppets

We had a great day in Year 1 today, focussing on DT and making puppets. We designed our puppets and tested two methods of joining fabric before we got on with making them. Staples was the most popular way of joining the felt, but we also found glue useful for adding details! I am sure you will agree that the finished puppets look fantastic. What a super day Year 1!
In The Groove
Peter Dalrymple (PDalrymple) on: Year 1 Class Blog
In music in Year 1 we are learning to perform the song 'In the Groove'. Today we added accompaniment using glockenspiels. We had to find the right notes and play them carefully, in unison, with the right rhythm.
Phonics

Every day in Year 1 starts with 30 minutes of phonics. This week we have been focussing on reading and writing different spellings for the sound 'oo'.
Fire Of London Houses Continued
Peter Dalrymple (PDalrymple) on: Year 1 Class Blog
Year 1 worked collaboratively with their partners once again today to further develop their Fire of London houses. We discussed what had gone well last time, thought about what we needed to change or improved and shared good ideas. The houses are really taking shape now!
