This half term in Y1 we have started our new topic \u201cCelebrations\u201d. This topic will help our Y1\u2019s to have a solid understanding of the meaning, characteristics and purpose of different celebrations around the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Last week, we learned about the Hindu celebration of light \u201cDiwali\u201d. Y1\u2019s explored the story of \u201cRama and Sita\u201d and put on a puppet show to display their retelling skills and to show off their inventiveness. There were many fantastic home- made and hand – made lollipop stick puppets to represent each character from the story!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We looked at patterns in Maths and made connections to the Hindu rangoli patterns. Y1\u2019s investigated and explored the outdoors gathering lots of materials to make their own nature rangoli patterns. I was very impressed with the wonderful, colourful and creative patterns that were created by the Y1\u2019s. I saw intricate detail, symmetry and imagination is many of the rangoli pattern responses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Y1\u2019s also received clay in their weekly home learning packs so we each made a clay diya lamp. We worked on strengthening our finger and hand muscles using pinching techniques and rolling techniques with the clay. The hard work paid off as I saw so many pretty diya lamps produced by the Y1 dolphins! Well done everyone \u2013 what a super week of learning. I\u2019m very excited to share with you our next celebration \u2013 Thanksgiving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
