This afternoon, we have been using the iPads to take photos of ourselves for the Learning Pit. We had to think about how we would be feeling at each stage and then show this using body language and facial expressions.

In Numeracy, we have been counting in 10s is 3-digit numbers. It is tricky when we have to cross over into a new hundreds number. For example, 10 more than 493 or 10 less than 609.

In Maths, we created a pictogram to display the results of our yes/no questions.

In Literacy, we wrote another story. This week, we had to create our own setting and character. We created a new world beyond an old creaking door in a forest. We were working on including description and adding more detail to make our stories longer and more interesting to read.

Today we started our new Committees. Each Committee spent some time welcoming everyone and thinking about what they would like to achieve this session.

In French, we revised colours and played a game to practise them. We learnt how to say what our favourite colour was – Ma couleur préférée est le jaune! We have also been saying the date every morning. We are getting very good at it!

As part of our Weather and Climate topic, we made wind socks. We tested the wind today. There was a very mild wind from the South West.

We spent time on Tuesday with the loose parts. We had to use the pieces that we had chosen to make the tallest tower. It was much more successful than the first time we did it because it was less windy. Miss Amy also noticed that groups were working better together and talking about how they could make their towers better.

In Music, we learnt to play the Open String Hoe Down on the ukulele. It was brilliant for a first go!
