In Literacy P1 have learned two split diagraphs a-e and i-e and the tricky words any and many. We wrote words, built words on our magnetic boards, coloured real and nonsense words and played roll and read. P2 have continued to focus on the ‘ck’ spelling pattern. We looked for ck words in a word search and made them on magnetic boards and played bingo.  In writing we wrote about the superhero we have made. In numeracy this week P1 have been working on learning our number bonds to 20. We played games and used Numicon to help us.  P2 have been exploring numbers to 50, place value and representations of numbers. We have used concrete materials to help us. On Tuesday Morning we watched Author’s live with Michael Rosen. On Wednesday morning we went to the Professor Eco show. It was all about schools who had problems to do with Science and he helped solved their problems like planting trees so the spiders didn’t come in to school.  Thursday was World Book day. We had 3 drop everything and read sessions; we shared our favourite book and had another teacher come to read to us. Mrs Smith read Goldilocks and the Three Bears to us. On Friday we had our World Book day assembly and our Mad Hatter’s tea party.  Here are a few of the children’s reflections:

“I enjoyed the Mad Hatter’s Tea party, the Professor Eco show and Mrs Smith reading to us.”

“I enjoyed the tea party. I got to eat a cake.”

“I liked the tea party because it was all about Alice in Wonderland.”

“I enjoyed the tea party. I liked the photo props.”

“I loved assembly and dressing up as a book character.”

“I enjoyed using the photo props at the tea party.”

“I enjoyed learning our new sounds a-e, i-e and tricky words many and any.”

“I enjoyed playing bingo when learning the ck pattern.”
