Welcome to Willow Tree Class
We are Willow Tree Class, a class of 24 marvellous, curious and sociable Year 1 learners who are eager to learn. Our teacher is Miss Allison and we are fortunate to have Miss Sambrook and Mrs Driver as our teaching assistants. In our class, we strive for excellence by being inquisitive through our collaborative, resourceful and resilient work ethic. This term our topic is 'From Past to Pixels'. Throughout this topic the children will explore the history of technology, learn about different significant individuals in the world of medicine and have plenty of opportunities to use their imagination and creativity.
What are we learning about this term?
This term our topic is ‘From Past to Pixels’. Throughout this topic the children will explore the technlogy evolution, the world of robotics and animation and have plenty of opportunities to use their imagination and creativity.
We will spend our History lessons looking closely at what technology is and how people it has supported people throughout history in areas such as our personal lives, the world of Science and in our Maths learning
In Art and Design, we will explore skeches, specifically learning that lines have various thickness and some lines can be darker or lighter dependent on how hard we press.
In Computing our learning will dive deep into the world of animations and robots. We will challenge ourselves while making flip books and combine movements to create a sequence on a robotic device.
We will also be incorporating Music, RE, PSHE and PE into our lessons by using technology as the stimulus to our learning. We can't wait for our brains to grow bigger from all of the new information we shall be learning!

I love this class. We learn some really fun and exciting things. My favourite topic this year was the Stone Age. We learnt about where our ancestors came from.

I love maths. This year I feel like I have been really challenged. I get to complete extra work which is really tricky. I use my JONK skills to help me.
