Literacy

In writing this week we started a 3 part story about a Disgusting Sandwich!  We had to use our imagination to figure out what was on our sandwich and then what happened to make it so disgusting!  Some of our ideas were very yucky but they are going to make fabulous stories! We are continuing to work on Visualising in our reading detective groups and can apply this to our writing!

 

Maths

We have been challenging ourselves with our adding and subtracting this week as we have been learning how to add double digit to double digit numbers!  We found this a bit tricky at the start but are definitely getting better at it now (we even had lots of people in our red teaching group this week – well done everyone!)    We have started to self assess which colour of teaching group we are in and are getting better at identifying how to support and challenge our own learning!

 

Learning Across the Curriculum

We have had an amazing week this week in our learning across the curriculum learning as we finished our Lighthouse Keeper’s Lunch context and moved onto the context of ‘Going on Safari’.  To start our topic we had the chance to do some drumming with Mrs Mansfield and Ms Drummond!  We explored rhythm games with Mrs Mansfield where we had to listen for red rhythms (they were the rhythms we weren’t allowed to clap back!)  Ms Drummond came in to teach us about African instruments.  We got to play our names on the drums and got the chance to learn about poly-rhythms.

In French this week we were learning how to say the names of some fruits!   We played a hide-and-seek game with the fruit and had to tell Mrs Mansfield which fruit had went to hide!  We are excited to learn more French vocabulary next week!

 

We are looking forward to next week!!!!
