The children have had a fantastic time this week and they have tried incredibly hard.
In Maths, 1TS have been comparing numbers using the inequality symbols within 20. They have also been practising their number bonds to 10 and 20.
1MG and 1AC have been consolidating their knowledge of the 2, 5 and 10 times table and division facts.
In English, 1TS have been learning facts about Penguins and then progressed onto writing a non-chronological report.
1MG and 1AC have been writing our set of instructions on how to make a hardtack biscuit. In our Reading Immersion sessions, the children read ‘When a Dragon Moves In’. The children made some super sandcastles and then designed their own creature to live in their sand castle.
In History, 1MG and1AC have continued learning all about a local, famous explorer, Captain James Cook. We have been thinking about why he is an important person in local and global History.
