We have had a fantastic week this week looking at plastic pollution. We have learnt lots about how it starts, why it is a problem and how we can help.One of our challenges was to create a new item out of a plastic cup. Here are some of the things we made!

As scientists this half term we are learning about plants. Today we had to use our background knowledge to make a plant out of equipment in the classroom. We then tried to label the different parts. After all of our learning this half term we will have another try and see if we can label all of the parts.

As Geographers we are going to be tracking the weather in Mosborough this term. Today we have been getting familiar with different types of weather.

This afternoon we found a map from Jofli! He had a picture but didn’t know what it was or what it was used for. We discovered that Jofli had left us a map, so we put on our coats and followed it around school. We found four bear prints that Jofli had hidden!

Class Dojo
This year, in Y1 Fir we will be using Class Dojo. The children will be rewarded with Dojo points when they demonstrate good learning behaviours in class. For example: being a caring learner; being a kind learner; being a critical learner.
Once the children have 50 Dojo points they will receive haribo sweets, at 100 points they will receive a lolipop and at 150 Dojo points the children will receive a piece of stationery or toy.
