Year One

Spring 2

Spring 1
Jesus - Teacher and Healer 

This week we have started our new RE topic, Jesus - Teacher and Healer. The children have been thinking off all the different words that we can use to describe Jesus and we will be learning all about the important stories, parables, that Jesus shared with us.

Happy Chinese New Year 

Seasonal changes

In science, we have been learning all about the seasons. We have looked at how the weather changes, how trees and plants might change and what clothes we would wear in different seasons. 

My Local Area

We have been exploring what we can see in our local area. The children have thought about what they might see on their journey into school and around their homes. They have also designed towns and thought about how to stay safe by having road crossings near to schools and parks. 

Outdoor day - Spring term

We had lots of fun exploring the forest and looking for clues like Hermelin. We found some thank you notes from Hermelin, as we have been great Stewards of God's creation and looked after our outdoor space and the animals that live there. 

We have enjoyed another busy week in Year 1. In English, we have begun to write our opening and build up paragraphs to our own stories. In Maths, we have been spotting patterns in number by adding one more and in Science, we have been learning about how important our eyes are. We finished our Creation topic in R.E. with a lovely prayer service and have begun our new topic on Families and Celebrations. 

Autumn 1, Week 3
This week, we have continued to read our text ‘Old Bear’ and been practicing writing sentences. We have been thinking about how the different characters feel throughout the story. In Maths, we have been counting within 10.

Autumn 1, Week 2

Dear Year 1 children and parents,

Welcome to our class page, we are so excited to be able to share what goes on inside and outside of the classroom with you all! Our Year 1 team consists of Mr Worthington (teacher of 1PW), Mrs McConvery (teacher of 1SM), Miss McIntosh, Miss Bramwell and Mrs Naylor; we are all happy to help in any way we can.

Our P.E. days are currently on Monday and Thursdays and just like last year, children can come to school in their PE kit for the whole day. Please remember that no earrings should be worn during lessons and a white round neck t-shirt and plain royal blue shorts/ royal blue or navy tracksuit bottoms should be worn.

We have thoroughly enjoyed getting to know the children this week and have already seen lots wonderful personalities shining through!

Please don't hesitate to contact us if there are any issues through teacher@stedward.bham.sch.uk.

Best wishes,

Mr Worthington and Mrs McConvery
