This week we have been listening to more of the Wild Robot story and comparing it to the Emily Gravett story The Odd Egg.  We learned about Roz’s accident and the egg that she finds and then drew and wrote it in the style of Emily Gravett.

We have had music technology with Mr Clark which was great fun.  We learned to make music with our voices and bodies.  We also listened to some music and thought about which part of the Wild Robot story it reminded us of.  In a few weeks, we are going to work again with Mr Clark and create our own Wild Robot soundscapes.

In PSHE we have been learning about the parts of the body.

We have started to learn about the life of Mohammed in our Islam RME topic.  We have also learned a little bit about Ramadan by watching Newsround.

In maths, we have been practising using money and giving change.  It’s a bit tricky at the moment but we are going to keep trying!

This week we have been outside observing nature, just like Roz the Robot.  We built a hide to camouflage ourselves. Then we wrote our observations on a Roz and camouflaged her too!

We went to see the P1 sharing of learning assembly.  It was about the Enormous Turnip.  We liked it when everyone tried to pull the turnip up!

We have been reading lots of books, like the Wild Robot, Frankenstein and Mr Tiger Goes Wild.  We wrote down the similarities and differences between the books.

We have been learning about points of the compass. Yesterday on the playground we hid some blocks, we marked their location on a map and then we gave the map to another team to find them all.

We have started reading the Iron Man by Ted Hughes – they are both robots, they both had simple pictures in black and white and they both used onomatopoeia, alliteration and repetition.
