What a busy week!

 

Maths

In Maths we have been looking at counting forwards from any given number and finding one more than that number.

Try this game:

Choose count on and back, then 1-10

 

English

In English this week we have finished our work on The Gruffalo with the children writing a description of the Gruffalo! We had some great ideas.

 

Science

In Science we looked at the properties of materials and thought of words to describe them like hard, soft, rough, smooth, bendy, stretchy etc.

 

Topic

This week in History, we looked at how toys have changed over time. We found out that older toys used to be handmade and made from materials like wood and metal and their moving parts tend to be clockwork. Whereas newer toys can be charged or have batteries, tend to be mass produced in factories and use materials like plastic.

 

Computing

This week we learnt about algorithms being a clear set of instructions and we created our own algorithms for the song, Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes.

 

PE

We practised moving by skipping this week and continued to focus on our throwing skills.

 

Outdoor learning

We went to the ALPS this week to explore natural materials and talk about what we could find.

 

Have a lovely weekend!
