Hi Everyone!

Just a little update on all the hard work that’s been happening in our class.

In music we have been learning about instruments that make different types of noises: boom, tap and scrape, shake and ting. A drum makes a ‘boom’ sound. A triangle makes a ‘ting’ sound. A guiro makes a ‘tap and scrape’ sound and a tambourine makes a ‘shake’ sound. We have been having lots of fun and have been making lots of noise!

In language we have been learning about the phonemes ‘ck’ and ‘mb’, which has a silent b – we all shout “DO WE SAY IT? NO WE DON’T”. Geraldine Giraffe helps us!

In maths we have doing lots of work on making 100, we have been playing matching cards, SMART board games and using numicon to support our learning.

In our writing we have been using describing words to help us write character descriptions! We have done one for the Big Bad Wolf, Mr MacLeod, Mrs Stevenson and Jordan! We have also worked as a class to write this blog!
