This week we have been continuing with our class novel, The Owl who was Afraid of the Dark. Plop has found out why dark is fascinating and why it is wonderful. We have been continuing to practise using question marks, exclamation marks and word banks in our writing. In maths, we have been learning to measure weight using balance scales and/ or standard unit scales. Some of us have been measuring and comparing kg’s and 1/2kg’s. In H&W, we learnt more strategies for feeling calm, such as meditation, breathing and grounding. We finally finished our festive frieze for the hall and it looks fab. We used wax resist, paint and different materials to make 3D, steaming cups of hot chocolate. This week we have also had outdoor learning and committees, so don’t forget to ask me about them. Finally, in science, we started learning about energy and became energy detectives, spotting as many types of energy as we could.
