Happy New Year!

Our first week back has been really exciting as we had a new arrival in our class! As Plop flew away, in came Hamish McHaggis. Hamish has come all the way from the Highlands of Scotland and wants to help us discover all the wonders of Scotland. We are so looking forward to hopping into the Whirry- Bang and having lots of adventures. In Literacy we have been revising our common words and phonemes by playing Hangman. In Maths, we have been revising the Days of the Week, number doubles and number words. We also worked hard on our addition and subtraction.

Our new topic for this term is Hamish McHaggis. On Thursday, a special letter appeared in the classroom with Hamish for us to read. Hamish and his friends live in the Highlands of Scotland and would like our help to explore other parts of Scotland. We wrote letters back to Hamish saying we would love to help him and told him one thing we would also like to find out about Scotland. In Literacy, we have been revising our common words and phonemes. We have been doing this by playing Hangman! This was lots of fun and providing challenge and enjoyment. In Maths, we have been revising the Days of the Week, number doubles, number words and addition up to 20.
