Good Morning Year 1
We hope you are keeping safe and well. What has been your favourite activity at home so far? We have loved seeing all the different things you have sent us over email and we are so impressed with all the hard work we are seeing. As Friday 8th May is a Bank Holiday, we will not be posting tomorrow. Have a lovely weekend!
Miss Jamieson would like to read ‘Aliens Love Underpants’ to you today! Find it in our ‘Storytime’ section on our home page. How many different pairs of underpants can you spot in the story?
Thank you for everything you are doing.

After you have looked at the slides have a go at the activity! You can print a halving grid here: Halving Grid
Can you find half of your toy cars? Can you find half of your teddies? Can you find half of your lego bricks? Remember to make sure the parts are equal!
While doing your activity have a go at saying the sentence. ‘Half of ___ is ___.’ What can you find out? Can every number be split in half?
