An unbe-leaf-able science lesson! 🪴

In science this week we were very interested to learn about the difference types of plants and explored their characteristics. On our tables, we explored ferns, conifers and flowering plants. We then dissected a flowering plant and narrated the parts of a flower. Some of us even challenged ourselves to green standard to become successful at the end of the lesson and made our own classification key to classify the plants. Great work Crew Mcloughlin, we have budding scientists in the making!

Inverse maths in Crew MI

We have been working really hard to understand out fact families and how addition and subtraction are the inverse of each other. We used our special whiteboard to help us to understand the relationship between numbers. Finally we even played a game and created our own fact families.

Year 1 music – using untuned percussion instruments to keep the rhythm 🥁 🎶

In Year 1, we have added untuned percussion instruments to the song we have been learning ‘The Menu Song’. We listened carefully to instructions and found the beat to the song and first showed this by clapping our hands in time. We then moved on to finding the beat with the percussion instruments, and we even pushed ourselves to try singing at the same time! It was tricky, but we are already looking forward to practising again next week and getting even better! ✨
