In numeracy the children have been developing their knowledge of multiplication and using their knowledge of doubles to help them learn the 2X table.

They have also been learning about halving and quartering.

In Literacy, the children have been learning to spell words with consonant blends and developing their comprehension skills.

As part of our topic ‘The Lighthouse keeper’s Lunch’, we have been comparing the seashore with our local environment and finding out about the importance of lighthouses.

We learned to weave paper to make picnic baskets like Mr Grinling’s.

We took advantage of the good weather and enjoyed having our ERIC time in the school garden again!

We took part in an Author’s Live session with author and illustrator- Emily Mackenzie.

As part of our Science work, we ventured outside on a mini beast hunt and we are all looking forward to our class trip to Amazonia on Tuesday.

We worked with Mrs Curle from NYCO on singing games. It helped us improve our skills in listening and following instructions too!

We’ve all had a great week.
