Literacy
During Literacy this week, we were up-levelling our writing by adding adjectives and using our core writing targets.
Alexis- “I was writing sentences about Pudsey Bear”.
We read through our reading book and then answered comprehension questions about the text. When reading, we made predictions about what might happen and looked at the picture for clues.
Tyller J. “I was reading my book”.
We have been practicing our new spelling sounds every day. We practice using our whiteboards, rainbow writing and using our spelling words when writing a sentences.
Maths
In maths this week, we were learning about patterns. We were also completing a number sequence and identifying the rule of the number sequence. We used a 100 square to support us and work out the rule and complete the number sequence.
Calvin- “Pattern is when the same thing is repeated”.
Aaron – “We were learning about number sequence. This is when you add the same amount to each number”.
IDL
For our topic this week, we were learning about Vikings homes and what they wore. We looked at what Vikings made their homes from. We compared a Viking house to our home and discussed the different materials that were used and the advantages and disadvantages of these materials. We also learned about how the Vikings dressed and the materials that their clothes were made from. The Viking used materials such a wool, leather and fur to make clothes and shoes.
Robyn- “We were learning about what the Vikings wore. They wore capes”
Scarlet- “They wore jewellery and broaches”.
