Creating maps
We have been busy outside creating maps of the playground! We designed our own symbols for the key too! Fantastic Class 1!
New Writing Unit
Our new writing unit, based on the story Pumpkin Soup, is all about instructions. We worked together to identify key features of instructions. Now we know what to include in our own writing!
“Messy maps”
In geography we created “messy maps” of our classroom using objects we could find to represent each area. The teamwork was amazing!
How Christians Praise.
In RE today we discussed God the creator and how Christians praise and say thanks for the world. We all thought about things we are thankful for.
