We’ve been working hard in Maths this week. We’ve been looking at vertical addition when the numbers are on top of each other. To help with adding three numbers, the circles have been learning to look for the pair that add to ten first.  It makes it much easier! We have also been learning about money and how to make values with different coins.

We wrote Kennings Poems about our holiday adventures.  We were cinema-watchers, ice-skaters, pizza-gobblers, game-players, doughnut-munchers, lamb-huggers, sofa-hoggers and TV-dancers. We are excellent poem-writers!

We have been learning about the story of Moses.  He was born in Egypt and was put in a basket as a baby.  He left Egypt becuase he was scared, but Moses trusted his God.

We started our weather topic this week too. We have daily meterologists that measure temperature, rainfall and the cloud cover every day.  We’ll post some pictures of our first week’s charts.  We made weather vanes and rain gauges to help us measure accurately.

In ICT we learned to keep ourselves safe online by saying no to friend requests from people we don’t know and asking an adult if we’re not sure about what we see on a screen.
