Learning Highlights

1. This week we enjoyed our second week working with Rob from Kids Gone Wild. He took us to Seafield Law and taught us the names of some plants and which ones to avoid.
2. We had a music lesson from Mrs de Luen from NYCoS who taught us a song that includes 5 different languages; English, Spanish, French, Swedish and German.
3. As a class we read a short rhyming book from the Giglets website and discovered that the rhyming words always came at the end of the sentence. We checked several other books in class and they all did the same!

Tricky Tasks

1. We have been practising place value in maths and looking at how important it is to recognise each number’s value depending on where it is.
2. For spelling practice we have been looking at putting words into alphabetical order. It gets quite tricky when some words begin with the same letter and we have to look at the next letter.
3. We have been using reciprocal reading skills in literacy and have made predictions about our class novel, the Wild Robot. We’ve also been clarifying hard words and asking more questions to get a better understanding of the text.

Our lead learners this week were Amelia and Thomas who worked on looking out for kindness and respect.
