• Room 4 – Trip to the Museum of Rural Life

  What a fantastic day we had on Wednesday for our class trip to the National Museum of Rural Life! The excitement began before we even arrived. The children absolutely loved the bus journey, chatting happily and spotting both new and familiar places along the way. There were lots of excited voices saying, “I’ve been there!” Although the rain came along too, it certainly didn’t stop the fun! We put on our jackets and walked along the trail to the farm.

In Maths, we began learning about o’clock times, focusing on reading times to the hour on analogue clocks and understanding that when the minute hand points to 12, we say “o’clock.” We practised matching times to daily routines and discussing what we might be doing at different o’clock times throughout the day. We also consolidated our knowledge of subtraction within 5, using concrete materials and number lines to help strengthen our understanding. In Literacy, we learned the new sounds y and z, using active learning …
