Welcome to Class 1M.
Your class teacher is Miss Metcalfe and also helping in the class is Mrs J Hacioglu.
On Thursday mornings the class will be taught by Mrs Green.
Our topic this half term is ‘Beside the Seaside’. Subjects are taught in the topic using a cross curricular approach. We will be investigating floating and sinking; exploring different materials and creating, testing and evaluating our own rafts. We will learn about the history of the RNLI and how to be safe around water and in the sun. We will look at Morecambe past and present, learning about traditional seaside activities and making our own Punch and Judy puppets. We will also have a joint pirate topic with reception.
Gym Stars
Gym star coaches will be visiting for six weeks.
They bring exercise equipment such as exercise bikes, treadmills, cross trainers and rowers.
They will also help us to develop fundamental skills. We are working on our jumping, throwing, catching and hopping aswell as improving our co-ordination.
Sikhism Topic
We have been learning that Sikhs share and help to please God. We are very lucky to have Ruby's family in 1S who have helped us to learn about Sikhism this term. Ruby's mum cooked us some Kara Prashad and some chapatis.
We tasted some prashad.
Sikhs eat this sweet at the end of worship.It is blessed as it is cooked by saying a special prayer.
Sharing prashad means everyone belongs and everyone is the same or equal. We had to cover our heads out of respect because it is a special food. It is a sweet pudding made from flour sugar and butter. It is sweet because everything is sweet in life that comes from the Guru.
