Here are some comments from the children about what we learned this week:
“Today we were learning about different animals – some in the rainforest and some jungle animals, like a jaguar.” – Lily
“We’ve been practising our handwriting – letters and numbers. We’ve also been practising learning to read scales and weighing stuff with scales.” – Chloe
“We learned that a jaguar’s spots are called rosettes because they look a bit like roses.” – Melissa
“In maths, we were using grids to add bigger numbers together, like 12 add 25.” – Grace
“In maths, we were using a place value grid to help us split numbers up into hundreds, tens, and units.” – Sebastian
“Splitting a number up into hundreds, tens, and units is called partitioning.” – Robert
“We got a new kindness tree. If someone is being nice, they can get a leaf on the tree.” – Alyssa
“We did PE and we played Jungles on Fire and Tree Tig.” – Lauren
“We were making plans for a story from a tiger picture. We wrote a beginning, middle, and end. In our writing jotters we added detail to make a real story.” – Calum
We look forward to learning more next week!
