Welcome to this weeks blog. We have had a super week, working hard and learning lots. The children have chosen some areas of their learning they would like to share with you.
We celebrated Remembrance day by making poppies and observing the 2 minute silence.
Literacy -Writing 
This week we have continued to develop our skills in persuasive writing. The children had to give an opinion about play, why and what they enjoyed about it. Some examples below-
– “o” sound
This week we have been learning about the “o” sound. The children have been writing, making and using the sound to create 3 letters words. Some children have been challenging themselves to create short sentences using a mixture of CVC words and common words!
O owls made with Cheerios!
As well as working on number bonds to 10 this week, I set the children 2 number matching challenges. In the first challenge they were given a large sheet of paper with numbers on it, they had to place the correct number sums on top of the answer. The second challenge was similar however, this time they had to match the correct dot pattern to the number. They enjoyed and did well on both!
Health and Wellbeing 
This week our health and wellbeing has been linked to Children in Need. We have listened to clips from the BBC and Joe Wicks about the importance of mental health and reconnecting and valuing those around us. The children choose a friend from the class to compliment them and say what makes them special, they then drew them a special picture. Some examples below-
Lastly a picture of the children getting ready for Children in Need 2020.
Have a great weekend. More updates next week.
