Hello everyone,

I hope everyone has enjoyed their week so far. The day off on Wednesday was lovely and it made the rest of the week fly by. Here is what we have all been up to this week:

In Maths:

Year 1 have started their new unit all about fractions. They have been learning how to recognise a half from shapes and everyday objects. 

Year 2 have also been looking at fractions, but have been focussing on halves, quarters and thirds. They have learned how to find a fraction of a number or an object by using their sharing skills. They have done a fantastic job so far! 

In English:

The students have continued to look closely at rhyming words and identifying them in a poem. Next week we will begin to write our own poems! How exciting!

In IPC:

We have been looking at animal classification keys and the characteristics of certain animals. Does the animal have feathers? Does it have hair or fur? These are the types of questions we have been asking to figure out which group they belong to. 

In Week 5 we will be going on our school trip. Today I told everyone where we will be going and they are so excited! I will be emailing you all a google form this evening, so please respond as soon as it’s convenient. 

Have a lovely long weekend! 

Ms. Temple 😄
