Year 1 News

Curriculum News April to May 2008

Art

An exciting term lies ahead for all in Year 1. Our Art focuses on 'What is Sculpture' and will allow for imaginative and 'abstract' creations! We will explore different artists and various sculptures before embarking on using a range of materials, including clay, to make sculptures of our own.

Geography

Barnaby Bear will take us on his travels with him, taking in the seaside in Poole and crossing the channel to Brittany in our Geography lessons. We will share our own holiday experiences and look at destinations on a globe and map.

History

If anyone ever wondered what life in a castle was like, then Year 1 will be the class to ask as our History will involve finding out about all aspects of castle life. From naming parts of a castle to finding out about different jobs, this topic will be a real journey back in time.
