Firstly, apologies for no photographs this week – it was such a busy week we forgot to take any!
Our spelling focus for this week was tricky words which made the ‘o’ sound. We spotted that in a lot of tricky words the ‘o’ sound is made by the letter ‘a’. This made remembering the spelling of words a little bit easier. Throughout the week we participated in lots of active spelling activities to help us with our tricky words this week. The children have really enjoyed playing the snakes and ladders game this week with their words, so much so that they have asked for this to be included in homework again next week!
We are almost finished our athletics block of learning in PE and this week we participated in the 2oom race and the 400m race.
The winners in our class in the 200m race were Katie, Teegan, Ava, Jack, Pawel and Robbie.
The winners in the 4oom race were Ava, Emily, Ola, Jack, Michael and Richard.
The 400m was really tricky because we had to run around the track twice. We were learning about how to pace ourselves during these longer races. Next week we have the 800m race and a relay race!
We have came to an end of our division topic in number work and next week will begin our consolidation of a lot of strategies we have used this year.
Our topic of ‘People Who Help Us’ has also came to an end and we have really enjoyed this topic. We have been given the opportunity to interact with a range of different services our community has to offer us and enjoyed learning about these services too. We started our topic of ‘Summer’ and what a great week to start this topic with the lovely weather. Look out for lots of outdoor learning and fun summer activities over the next few weeks.
Miss Meechan and P2M
