In Maths this week, we have been learning about our number bonds.  We have learnt our number bonds to 10 and 20.  Please practise these with us at home:

0+10=10                                    10+10=20

1+ 9 = 10                                   11+9=20

2+8=10                                      12+8=20

3+7=10                                      13+7=20

4+6=10                                      14+6=20

5+5=10                                      15+5=20

6+4=10                                      16+4=20

7+3=10                                      17+3=20

8+2=10                                      18+2=20

9+1=10                                      19+1=20

10+0=10                                    20+0=20

In English, we have been innovating our new story - How to Catch a Star- by Oliver Jeffers.  This week we have thought about the 3 ways that the boy tried to catch the star in the original text...he climbed a tall object, used a lassoo and asked a flying animal.  We thought of our own new ideas for each and re-wrote the story using our new ideas.

In Science, we have been testing materials to see if they are opaque or transparent.  We had a variety of objects and tested whether we could see through them or not.  We talked about how an opaque material would be better for our spacesuit body and a transparent material for his visor.

In topic, we have been learning about Tim Peake.  We have been learning about his life.  He began life as a helicopter pilot and progressed to being an astronaut.  He was most significant for living in the International Space Station for 6 months in December 2015.

Have a lovely weekend.
