Good Afternoon,<\/p>\n

This week we have been learning the sounds ‘ai’ and ‘oy’. We have been working hard on our writing in our jotters, ensuring we use capital letters, full stops and finger spaces. This week we moved on to Addition in Maths and number bonds of 20 and 40.<\/p>\n

We started our new topic of Knights and Castles, and we looked at Edinburgh Castle and the history of them. We also learned the name of different parts of a castle.<\/p>\n

This inspired our play this week, and we worked hard with the loose parts and building blocks to recreate our own castle. Next week we will continue with two more sounds ‘oa’ and ‘qu’ and will be focusing on subtraction for maths.<\/p>\n

Pupil Voice:<\/p>\n

EW: I enjoyed building castles.<\/p>\n

BC: I liked learning about the castles.<\/p>\n

CJ: I liked colouring in and cutting out the knight.<\/p>\n

BK: I loved learning the new sounds.<\/p>\n

CJ: I enjoyed building my castle using the pegs and sticks.<\/p>\n

OM: I enjoyed drawing the water to represent the ‘moat’ of the castle when building it.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Remember:<\/strong><\/p>\n

P.E on Monday is outdoor. It is important that the children have waterproof jackets with hoods every single day.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Have a lovely weekend.<\/p>\n
