Jack and the Flum Flum Tree

This week we started our book focus by looking at ‘Jack and the Flum Flum Tree’. We used our predicting skills to try and guess what would happen in the story. We used clues from the front cover, blurb and first page. We then had to create a mental picture of what we thought the Isle of Blowyernose looked like. Here are some examples of our imaginative islands.

In Literacy this week we have been revising all of the sounds we have learnt so far. We have been practising our sounds in many different ways using lots of sensory approaches.

We have also been working hard on our common words this week. We used the spelling stones, scrabble tiles and crabs to help us write our tricky words. We have been doing lots of sentence reading using our digraphs. Miss Mudd even forgot to put some of the words in the sentences so we had to identify the correct word to put in.

In Numeracy we have been consolidating our knowledge of number facts. Some of us were working within 10 and others up to 20.

Some of us have even been working on numbers to 100! The numbers got all jumbled up so we had to get them all back in the correct order.

This week Miss Mudd has also been using our new choosing board. Different activities are set out on each table and each table has been given a number. We have to put our names on the station we want to work at and do the tasks that have been set. We then get a chance to change stations and try other activities.
