We’re back! w/c 15th March 2021

It’s lovely to be back together and we have been working with partners and in small groups and outside to enjoy the sunshine!

Health and well-being (Trees of life)

This week for health and well-being, we have been learning that everyone is unique and different so we have been working on our Trees of Life that show that everyone is special.

 

Inside our trunk, we put our strengths or things we are good at, and in our branches we wrote our dreams.  Inside our leaves, we wrote people who are special to us, and on our fruit we wrote why there were special.

 

Numeracy and Maths

This week we have been focusing on time, using lots of games to look at digital and analogue.  We played a sorting game in pairs and small groups to share our ideas.  We also did a scavenger hunt to make different numbers.  The numbers matched letters to crack the code.  The code was “frogs love leap years”.

We have enjoyed playing “guess the number”. A person chooses a number and each person guesses the number. This game is good fun but it also practises our memory skills and our number skills, our place value and prediction and problem solving.

We have been multiplication skills in games too!

PE

This week we have started to learn our hockey skills. We have been learning to hold the hockey stick correctly and how to control the ball and stop it. We began to speed up and practise going round corners using cones.

 

Literacy

We have been continuing our work on adverbs, adjective, nouns and verbs. .  We took our learning outside and played corners to practise and worked with a partner to sort the words into the different groups.

 

This week we wrote an informal letter to Mrs Allan about lockdown and being back at school. She was very proud of how we used our remote learning into the real classroom.
