Welcome back to Year 1. 

Our topic throughout the Autumn Term is 'Incredible Me' where we will be learning about ourselves and looking at how we have grown and changed. The KS1 teachers have worked hard to ensure our planning revisits any potential lost learning from the Summer term and have incorporated this into the new year. 

One of our most exciting things will be creating a timeline of our lives where we will be using photographs of how you have changed since being born. Can I ask that you send in up to 6 photographs of your child in an envelope showing changes of your child since they were born (e.g. newborn baby, baby, one year old, two year old, three year old, four year old). We will be using these to create a timeline and will stick them down. These photographs and timelines will be sent home at the end of the school year. Please feel free to start sending these in from the first day of school. 

During Autumn 2 we will be focusing on medicines and the lives of significant individuals. We will be investigating the lives of Florence Nightingale and Mary Seacole. Our challenge will be to create a timeline of their lives and the significant things they did during their lives 

Below is a summary of our intended learning for this half term:
