We have had a fantastic first week back at school!

In PE, we have started our gymnastics block and we have been learning about balancing. We practised doing different balances on the mats and we also had a turn at trying to hold the balance on the bench. We were all very confident and keen to share our learning with our friends.

In phonics, we have been learning the ‘v’ and ‘x’ sounds.  We set up a vet surgery in our classroom and we have had lots of fun helping the animals. We have been practising reading our CVC words and we are showing confidence with this. In writing, we wrote a sentence to describe a woolly hat and we tried to use the word ‘and’. Miss Stebbing was very impressed with our writing and that we can discuss our writing targets.

In maths, we have been learning subtraction strategies and we know that the answer is a smaller number. We have been using our finger patterns to help us complete the sums. We also discussed the months of the year and made a calendar.

We have started a new topic all about Scotland and we talked about what we would like to learn.

 

Some of our personal highlights this week are:

Matteo – I enjoyed seeing the buddies at lunch time.

Maksymilian – I enjoyed playing with the marble run.

Tyler T – I enjoyed playing in the vets.
