We have been designing our own umbrellas in teams over the past couple of weeks and finally got to make the final product this week. As well as this we have been continuing some good work on place value in maths, focusing on using our ones and tens. In English we are starting some learning around persuasive writing called ‘come to my candy house’. However, we have had some added excitement as the elf on the shelf has been hiding around our classroom’s each day! ### Year 1 Highlights 10/12/21 [![](https://files.schudio.com/thepalmeracademy/images/gallery/year-1-highlights-10-12-21/Y11.png)](https://files.schudio.com/thepalmeracademy/images/gallery/year-1-highlights-10-12-21/Y11.png) [![](https://files.schudio.com/thepalmeracademy/images/gallery/year-1-highlights-10-12-21/Y12.png)](https://files.schudio.com/thepalmeracademy/images/gallery/year-1-highlights-10-12-21/Y12.png) [![](https://files.schudio.com/thepalmeracademy/images/gallery/year-1-highlights-10-12-21/Y13.png)](https://files.schudio.com/thepalmeracademy/images/gallery/year-1-highlights-10-12-21/Y13.png) [![](https://files.schudio.com/thepalmeracademy/imagecache/100x100c/news/63.jpg)](https://www.thepalmeracademy.com/news/2021-12-02-year-6-trip-to-ufton-court) Previous ### [Year 6 trip to Ufton Court](https://www.thepalmeracademy.com/news/2021-12-02-year-6-trip-to-ufton-court) [![](https://files.schudio.com/thepalmeracademy/imagecache/100x100c/news/17.jpg)](https://www.thepalmeracademy.com/news/2021-12-10-highlights-from-nursery) Next ### [Highlights from Nursery](https://www.thepalmeracademy.com/news/2021-12-10-highlights-from-nursery) ### News & Events - [News](https://www.thepalmeracademy.com/news) - [Upcoming Events](https://www.thepalmeracademy.com/events) - [Newsletters](https://www.thepalmeracademy.com/news-events/Newsletters) - [![Absence Reporting Link](https://files.schudio.com/thepalmeracademy/images/partners/1(1)_(1).png)](https://www.thepalmeracademy.com/absence-reporting) - [![Accelerated Reader](https://files.schudio.com/thepalmeracademy/images/partners/2(1)_(1).png)](https://login.renaissance.com/12d2ca4f-6beb-4887-82ee-ddfbdb0b88d4?state=145e0c43-7ae1-46eb-a2d3-c9224036ffb3) ##### Location 70 Northumberland Avenue Reading Berkshire RG2 7PP ##### Contact Us 0118 9375481 ##### Stay Connected - [X](https://twitter.com/R2PalmerAcademy) - [Youtube](https://www.youtube.com/c/ThePalmerAcademy) © Copyright 2015–2026 The Palmer Academy School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://www.thepalmeracademy.com/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
