On Monday in Maths we continued with our work on number patterns and sequences. We looked at more complex number patters and learned strategies to find missing numbers and to continue the sequence so the pattern was correct.
In spelling we practised our common words by helping Mr Whoops who is not very good at his spelling. We helped him correct his mistakes and write out the common words he was not sure of.
In the afternoon we used our knowledge of shape to start to make 2D and 3D Christmas decorations. Then we joined with P2/3 to rehearse our songs for the family carol service which takes place next week in St. Michael’s Church.
The class have worked very well throughout the week revising and consolidating the work they have completed this term in Maths and Literacy. We have been practising our 3 and 4 times tables by playing lots of interactive games such as Bingo and Buzz. We have also been exploring different strategies to be able to mentally add and subtract two digit numbers. The class have enjoyed discussing their strategies with one another and playing games such as Top Spot to help develop their skills further.
We all thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity to share some of our learning experiences on Wednesday afternoon during the Learning Showcase. The class produced some very interesting mythical creatures! Thank you to all our visitors for coming along!
Our whole week has been full of many opportunities to explore our creativity with many different art and craft activities in preparation for Christmas. We have been doing very well to learn our songs for the church service and school assembly next Friday.
Today we worked very hard to decorate and complete our “split pin” Santa and Elf decorations ready for taking home and hanging up beside our Christmas Trees.
