Mars Rover, Saturn and Subtraction

 

This week in P1a we have been continuing our Space Topic learning. Our writing task this week was to complete a fact file page about the planet Saturn and following on from last week’s learning about Mars, we used the metal loose parts to design our own Mar’s Rovers. We displayed them on our red carpet because it looks just like the surface of Mars.

In Literacy, we continue to investigate Non Fiction texts and we have discovered lots of new facts about animal skeletons and eyes. We have also been working hard to consolidate our phonics using our single sounds, blends and digraphs in a variety of different activities.

In Maths our number focus has been subtraction and we have been working on our number bonds in our mental maths activities.

Miss Bishop has been teaching us about different materials.

And Mrs Grieve has been teaching us how to safely use knives when we are preparing food.

What started as a simple building of a park, has turned into Jurassic World

 

It has been so lovely to see the construction developing as the week has gone on. The children have taken their learning forward by adding additional creatures and signage – they even added a gift shop!

Here are some more photos of this week’s learning.

I hope everyone has a great weekend.
