Year 1 News – 7.11.25

The children have had a very exciting first week back. We started our topic on the Great Fire of London and a lot of our lessons have focused on this.

Geography

We looked at where London is in the United Kingdom. We talked about capital cities and we learnt about some of the landmarks in London.

History

We have begun to find out about the Great Fire of London. To start with, we looked at the differences between London today and London during the Tudor times. Then we focused on where and why the fire started and what impact it had. Looking at the differences between London now and then helped them to understand why the fire destroyed so many houses.

English

In our whole class reading lesson, we read a non-fiction book about the Great Fire of London and the children used retrieval skills to answer questions about the text.

Then they used this knowledge and what they had learnt in the history lessons to write facts about the Great Fire of London.
