We hope you have had a lovely week!
On Tuesday, we enjoyed a short walk to Shepherds School, where we met the author Liz Frost. She was incredibly engaging as she read the story The Turtle Who Turned the Tide. The children listened and interacted beautifully.
In Maths, we have been working hard on subtracting numbers across a 10 and not across a 10. The children showed great perseverance and used different strategies to help them solve problems confidently.
In English, we have been thinking about how to look after our felt tip pens. We used precise verbs and added emphasis to write clear and sensible class rules. The children had fantastic ideas and enjoyed crafting their own instructions.
Our RE learning linked beautifully with our story time this week as we explored different ways we can help our planet. We discussed being kind to one another, walking or biking instead of using vehicles, and making sure we never drop litter.
