Amber have had a great start to the term! We have come back refreshed and enthusiastic about our new topic ‘Amazing Animals’. 

This week in English we read the poem ‘ The garden’.  We became ‘ poets’ for the week and wrote our first stanza of the poem. We discussed what flowers and trees we would have in our garden. We also thought of different animals and insects to include in the poem. We are becoming much better at working and writing independently. Our main targets this term is to use full stops, finger spaces and capital letters in our sentences!

In maths we started to learn about the differences between a ‘whole’ and a ‘part’. We had lots of fun with practical activities using playdough and also working with a partner to apply our understanding of ‘ whole’ and ‘ part’.

We are really excited to start our computing sessions soon as part of our topic learning. We will be learning how to independently log on to our Chromebooks.  In Art we have been learning about primary and secondary colours. We explored these colours individually and made our own colour wheels mixing secondary colours using primary colours.
