Welcome to Year 1

Welcome to Diligent Daffodils!

Diligent Daffodils is a Year 1 class. There are two adults in our class that help us learn, Mr Tilley- Class teacher and Miss Saunders- Teaching Assistant.

Welcome to our new topic - Fighting Fit!

Within our topic sessions we will be learning all about our  different foods, keeping healthy, all about ourselves and people who help keep us safe! 

During our language lessons the chidlren will have the opportunities to explore a variety of different writing activities including story writing, recount writing, poems, instructions and reciepes!  

During our mathematical development sessions we have been developing our number knowledge through adding, subtracting, multiplying and solving word problems. Year 1 will be creatingdifferent food by using 2D shape printing, creating 3D models of emergency service vehicles using the iPads and develop their understanding of symmitry through practial activities! Year 1 will also be exploring number, time and place value.

We will also be developing our Welsh Oracy and Reading skills this term and following the adventures of Fflic and Fflac through their stories.

I would like to thank you all for your continued support and if you have any question or queries my door is always open.

Many thanks

Mr Tilley
