In writing this week we wrote about a magic button and what it could do. We read One Button Benny which was in book bug bag and this inspired our writing lesson. We learned the sounds j and v. We thought of words with these sounds then made them on our magnetic boards and then wrote them down. We made jellyfish and volcanoes. We revised our tricky words. In Maths, we have been collecting, representing and answering questions about pictograms, tally charts and bar graphs. We made our own pictogram of eye colour, a tally chart of our favourite pets and a bar graph of our favourite book. We looked at toys and had to sort old and new toys.  In P.E, we played duck duck goose and dodgeball. We have been busy practising for our nativity in the hall as well this week. Our enterprise is nearly finished and pictures will be available shortly. Here are a few of the children’s reflections:
