This week started with a special visit from ‘Dotty,’ a gorgeous Jackapoo puppy. The children had lots of interesting questions about how to care for a new puppy such as what she ate and what was her favourite toy. In Maths this week we have looked at number bonds within 9, 8 and 7 using the practical equipment, and then writing the number bonds in order in our books. In preparation for our Gruffalo Crumble, we have been learning about where food comes from and the different food groups. Year 1 have very much enjoyed English this week as we have been inventing and drawing our own monster called a ‘Snuffalo.’ The children then thought of interesting words to describe their monster.
