Homework

Year 1 had great fun completing their homework projects this half term. Look at their fantastic work! We cannot wait to get started with our next projects. 

We read the story Handa's Surprise and discussed what was different in Handa's life compared with ours. We moved on to look in more detail at the differences between African and British culture and made our own African inspired necklaces!

We watched the video For the Birds and discussed the message behind it. We all thought of different ways that we could be a good friend and be kind to people. 

We discussed how everybody is different and unique. We compared our similarities and differences as a class. We then found a partner and drew portraits of each other. 

We learnt about the importance of charity and helping others. We looked into the history of Children in Need and all the important work they do. We discussed why we are all fortunate and what we are lucky to have.
