In Room 8 this week, as part of our IDL topic,  we have been learning about the Ancient Egyptians and their pyramids. We learned that the tip of pyramids are sometimes golden. There can be hieroglyphic writing on the pyramids too. We made pyramids using straws, play doh and blue tak. It was great fun!

We have been doing some Halloween art this week. We have been designing bunting to hang in our classroom. We used step by step drawings to help us.

Our spelling sounds this week were ‘wa’ and ‘ue’. We worked on these using active strategies like hieroglyphic spelling.

We have been doing lots of number talks, to give us lots of strategies to use. We have been working on adding 9 using out friendly number 10.  We learned a song to help us do this.

We had a visit from Mrs Muddle and we had to correct the paragraph that she left us because she forgot her punctuation.

In PE we have been working on ball skills. We were practicing chest pass and shoulder pass and working on our sportsmanship.
