Year 1/2 love to visit Leam Lane Library.
Subtracting Length
Year 1/2 have been adding and taking away lengths in Maths. In today's lesson we used playdough to roll out a particular length then used a ruler to measure the amount we were taking away and measured again to check how much we had left.
Learning to play the recorder
Year 1/2 have been learning to play the recorder with Mr Parkin. We have been practicing holding our recorders correctly and blowing gently to create each note.
Year 1/2 Music
Mr Parkin will be working with Year 1/2 for our music lessons this half term. We loved having a try of the keyboard today while we thought about the pulse and rhythm of the music.
Year 1/2 have been learning about the art work of Giuseppi Arcimboldo. Today in art we all created self portraits in the style of the artist.
