We have been writing Haiku poems. There is a rule where you have to have three lines and the first one 5 syllables, second 7 syllables and last one 5 syllables.
In maths we drew line graphs and we have been learning doubles.
We have also been doing scratch art fireworks. Then we also picked carrots in our garden and Mr Mackay will be making us carrot soup. 😊😉🥰
The ceilidh was super fun we were having the best night of our lives.
In maths we have been learning more addition strategies and some subtraction strategies.
We were learning fact triangles.
In literacy we have been learning new phonemes and also some descriptive character writing about the Night Zoo. We had to write our own character description. We used core targets, similes, adjectives, adverbs and paragraphs.
Yesterday we went on a fun trip to the Titanic Exhibition. We met members of the crew and saw the hull, the funnel and the pulley from the ship. One woman was playing cards when disaster struck and the cards were on display. Women and children got on the lifeboats first. When it was sinking the weight of the water in the ship broke it in half. We had an excellent day and learned lots of facts about the Titanic.
Happy Talk like a Pirate Day! Arrrr… 🏴☠️
Look at our lovely crew of shipmates.
Here’s this week’s highlights!
Place value perfection! This week everyone completed their place value assessments and did absolutely amazing, showing Mrs Connell what they’d learned. A very proud teacher indeed.
We learned about synonyms and used a thesaurus to find words. Boiling, warm, burning and roasting are so much better than hot. Prehistoric and ancient are so much better than old.
On Tuesday, we learned about discrimination. Mrs Connell asked us to put post its on to different people. They said things like ‘I want to go university’ but we found it hard when we didn’t know the people. We learned that’s what discrimination is.
Have a lovely long weekend and see you all Tuesday.
This week we have been learning how to use adverbs nouns adjectives and verbs.
In maths we have learned place value and how to times by tens hundreds and thousands.
In art we have learned to scale up flowers in paintings.
In PE we played dodgeball.
Have a great weekend.
Everyone learned how to write numbers in words.
We have started a new book called Kensuke’s Kingdom as class Novel.
We predicted how we thought what would happen in the book and played unlikely or likely with the post it’s that we made. We decided how likely each prediction was to happen.
We painted watercolour flowers with Miss Walker.
This week we started our new maths topic of shape. As well as identifying properties of 2D and 3D shapes, we have been exploring which shapes tile. Look at our patterns and designs…
This week we started looking at pattern and sequences. We started off by making patterns using shapes and colours. Then we looked at number patterns and worked out the rule of the sequence. Some of us even worked out the rule using negative numbers.
Today Mrs Connell asked us what we needed money for. We made a list of all the different ways we use money. We also talked about help available to support people too. Identifying coins, working out change and total costs are just some of the activities we’ve been up to.
Here are some extra challenges for March!
