KS1
Welcome to Pine, Almond and Lily classes ...
Much of our key information can be found in the 'Transition to Year One' presentation and the 'Meet the KS1 Teaching Team' presentation which includes staff, topics for the year, maths, reading, writing, spelling, homework, PE and contact information.
Our Summer 1 Topic - Muck, Mess and Mixtures
Let’s get messy. Muck and mess are good. In fact, they're marvellous. Dive in and get your hands and feet all sticky and covered in paint. Play with liquids, squish some dough and check out the slushiest and mushiest foods. Pour, mix, stir, splat. How does it feel to get your hands covered in goo? Make a wobbly jelly and draw with wibbly clay. Write recipes, instructions, riddles and poems – there are loads of scrummy words to describe messy mixtures. Work with paint and other squelchy stuff to create a new gallery space. What will you make? How will you arrange it? How will the gallery make you and your visitors feel? Don’t worry about the mess – it’ll always wash.

Making Instruments which can play different volumes and pitches
Firework Soundscape
We waited for the fuse to burn by playing to a slow beat. The tempo got quicker and the volume increased as the firework flew up. It all went silent before the firework suddenly exploded!
Exploring materials - the fun way!
After exploring the materials, we had our first go at animating some clay. We have reviewed our work, thought of improvements and we hope to implement these soon.
The children asked if they could do this at home, which they can. Just download the free app 'I can animate' Lite and have a go!
