Last week we started a new genre for story writing – RECOUNT! We wrote a recount about a trip to the dentist.  Fantastic Mr. Fox started their first novel on Monday and are excited for the challenge!

In Maths we have been learning some more subtraction strategies.  We can now subtract on a number square, number line, with our fingers and we know a quick trick for -9 and – 11.

Last Friday we enjoyed a Burns Supper with room 7 and room 9 to celebrate Robert Burns birthday.  We tried haggis, neeps and tatties!

This afternoon we started our purposeful play for our new topic – Edinburgh.  We had lots of fun learning through play.  Here is a photo of last weeks weekly wonder and some photos of us taking part in purposeful play today.
