This week we have each made a fantastic mask for our assembly on Monday. We have lots of different jungle animals. The class have learnt their lines brilliantly and their dancing is amazing! We have also got lots of props including a violin and two guitars made from card! They are going to be awesome.

We have written a diary entry, imagining that we were the boy from the short animation ‘The Present’. We were able to include lots about how the boy was feeling and we also added lots of great description. We have been colour marking our work and if we feel we haven’t shown enough of one of the Steps to Success we write another sentence at the end. For example, maybe we didn’t use ‘because’, so we write another sentence with ‘because’ in it just to show we can!

In Numeracy, we are working on different subtraction strategies using a number line to take a number away in 2 or 3 steps. Some of us can do this in our heads, while others prefer to jot it down or use a number square.

We are enjoying our new class novel The Twits Next Door. The Lovely family have moved in next door and it has been funny finding out the ways in which they spread their loveliness! Today, we designed our own new ‘Lovely Invention’ to spread more loveliness!

This afternoon, we learnt about different animals that could be pets. We learnt how to say if we had a pet or not.
