St Mary's Catholic Primary School
Welcome Back, Orange Class!
A mini-project based on the book 'All Are Welcome' by Alexandra Penfold. We will learn about our new classroom, new teachers and new routines!
Amazing Me!
This project is all about how amazing you are! How does your body work? What do you look like? How do you feel? We will think about our amazing families, too!
Our Town
This term we will be investigating the geography of our local area. What physical and human features will we see? We will look at maps, and go out and about to do some fieldwork!
Celebrate Together!
Later in the term we will look at some different times of celebration, what different people do to celebrate and how to make some healthy party food!
Plants, Paws and Whiskers!
This term we will start with finding out about the history of toys since the 1960s. What is different and what has stayed the same?
Next, we'll find out about some wild and wonderful animals! How could we sort and group them?
Finally, we will learn about the plants in our local environment. We will 'get to know a tree' - will it be deciduous or coniferous? How can you tell?
We will be making some clay sculptures of plants we find.
What a busy term!
Garden Safari
This term we will find out what's right under our noses! We will learn about the tiny creatures that live in our environment. What are they? Where do they live? What do they like and need?
In Geography, we will find out about how the weather affects our environment and our lives. We will become metereologists, measuring and collecting weather data.
We will be inspired by the weather in Art as well - creating weather paintings.
What weather do you like? Sunshine, snow, storms, showers?
Do you like looking at the clouds?
Can you tell what the weather's going to be like?
I Do Like To Be Beside The Seaside!
Seaside science - What animals live in a seaside habitat? Vertebrate or invertebrate? Herbivore, carnivore or omnivore? How do humans affect this habitat - we'll find out about seaside pollution.
Seaside Geography - what are coastal towns like? Compare two different coastal areas in the UK - what is the same, what is different?
Design Technology - making a Dream Pillow.
Year 1 2021/2022
Welcome to Year 1
In Year 1 at St Mary's, children continue to learn through play and investigation, while beginning to focus on the subject areas of the National Curriculum. Children will continue to work on phonics to develop their reading and writing skills, and will use many practical resources to develop their understanding of mathematical concepts. Across the curriculum, children develop both skills and knowledge through themed projects. Here are the projects planned for this year!
