In Design and Technology, Year 1 did a Stirling job of designing and making their own teddy bears.
We followed a specific design process:
1. We drew our teddy design
2. We drew our teddy outline not felt.
3. We cut out our shape
4. We punched holes all around the edge
5. We then sewed the edges leaving a gap to put stuffing in
6. We stuffed our teddies
7. We then closed the holes by sewing it closed
8. Then we decorated it with buttons and ribbons for eyes and scarf
They look fantastic.
Year 1 enjoyed our Hour of Code session a few weeks ago. We got to learn all about machine memory. The children worked in pairs and built robots from junk modelling. We then looked for ways to teach our robots how to recognise a greeting.
Puffins hosted a fantastic Reading Cafe earlier in December. We read Avacado Baby and our parents joined us in completing activities and joining in the reading tradition within our school.
