\nLiteracy
\nWe are working hard weekly with our phonics sounds, spelling and reading. Our talk for writing genre is journey tales and we are learning the model text The Papaya that Spoke. We can re-tell the story using pictures, actions and drama. We are now innovating the story to create our own version.

\nWe enjoy number talks and daily 6 to improve our mental math skills. We have explored place value, number processes, data handling and measurement in math lessons. We also participated in Maths Week Scotland by completing a range of activities outside and in. We particularly enjoyed drawing symmetrical designs in the playground and finding symmetrical things in the environment on a symmetry hunt. We found a butterfly to examine and can successfully explain what symmetry is.

\nFantastic Mr Fox was our first novel and IDL topic. We loved the story! We drew our own foxes using basic line shapes and colour, explored food chains in science lessons and researched how animals use their senses. We had great discussions about the main characters Mr Fox and the three farmers Boggis, Bean and Bunce and were able to create wonderful character descriptions to show our understanding.
\nWe loved using our senses to explain our surroundings. We went on a hunt in the playground to see what we could see, hear, touch, smell and taste.<\/p>\n
\nWe have been making the most of the lovely weather to spend time outside. We painted self-portraits in the garden and then completed free choice painting in the fresh air. We are developing our acting skills by acting out scenes for Talk for Writing – some award winning performances.
