This has been another busy week in P4! In Numeracy we continue to focus on our addition skills, with a particular focus on our layout of chimney sums. The pupils have produced some lovely, neat work that they should be very proud of. I hope we will keep up this standard! We worked out answering some single digit, 2 digit, 3 digit and even 4 digit addition sums. We will extend this by looking at carrying within addition also. I can already see many children becoming more confident with their addition skills! We have also been working on our mental maths skills with some mixed questions – mainly focused around addition and subtraction.
In Literacy this week we have continued reading in our groups. We have had some discussion around the texts and we have tried some comprehension questions based on what we have read. We are using a variety of skills such as finishing the sentences, matching the sentence starter to its ending and then giving our own full answers to a question. We have been focusing on common words (Frys Words) for our spelling just now and will continue this for the next while to build up our spelling confidence and knowledge. In writing we have created an All About Me story to tell everyone about us and the things we like and enjoy doing. Have a look at some below:
In PE we have been doing some Team Races. We decided on the types of races we would like to do which ranged from the bunny hop race, to a walking race to a skipping race and more! The children had lots of fun taking part in these, although I think some of us need practise in going right to the finish line!!! We look forward to trying out some other races next week!
