Update on our targets from Autumn Term

Literacy Target from Autumn Term so far: Practising our letters and creating a story. 

'I have designed my own character. I even dressed up as her. This helped me to make my writing better.'

Numeracy Target from Autumn Term so far: To continue to practise writing our numbers and have a go at making number sentences.

'We have a new number time where we practise our numbers on the chalkboard.'

Our Year 1 Pengwins gave some Pry Cop children a tour of our workshop and explained to them all the learning we have been doing. 

'What is Choice and Challenge?'

'I like Choice and Challenge, it is where we plan what we want to do and then we can go and do it with our friends.'

'I really like showing my work on the Choice and Challenge board, Mrs Rees lets us stick up our own work and today Miss Walters asked us to make some more fayre tickets to add to our display.'

'Can you show us your writing on this display?'

'We had to use 'WOW' words when writing about bonfire night.'

'We like helping Tedi Twt, here we had to draw and write about what food he would like at our Christmas party.'

'I can count how many people voted now!' 

'What are you excited to learn about this term?'

'We have a new Choice and Challenge area - Ty Celf and I can't wait to make things in there.'
