This week in Maths, Year 1 have been comparing numbers to 20 and using number lines to order numbers. In English, we have been identifying features in a set of instructions and will continue with writing instructions for baking next week.

Year 2 have been doing some assessments in maths.  The children worked hard on addition and subtraction quizzes and were very proud of themselves.  In art we have completed our sculptures which we will share with you next week.  In geography we have been showing what we have learnt about the UK, completing maps and matching games.  The children were all very pleased with themselves when they realised how much more they know now than they did 5 weeks ago!  In PE, we are continuing to practice our fundamental movement skills and enjoyed using our skills in a tactic game.

On Monday next week we will be heading down to the field so please bring wellies or boots!

Another busy week in Owls class this week as we approach half term.

In English this week, we have been planning our newspaper articles.  We have planned using the structure of a newspaper which we have learnt and what features should be included in each part.

In Maths, we completed our fractions unit by multiplying and dividing fractions, and we have now moved on to learning about decimal places.

In Geography, we learnt about what a superpower is, what makes the USA a superpower, and their role in climate change.

In PHSE, we talked about how we should react when we fall out with friends.

Finally we had a lot of fun in Art on Friday afternoon, creating our sets of rooms in houses.
