In Maths, we have started exploring number lines. The children have been learning how to identify where numbers belong on a number line and have begun estimating where numbers should be plotted when not all numbers are shown. We have been using our knowledge of place value to help us make sensible estimates.

In English, we have now finished our core text, Rapunzel. The children have really enjoyed exploring the story and are now preparing to write their own diary entries as Rapunzel. We have been thinking carefully about Rapunzel’s thoughts and feelings at different points in the story and using our senses to generate interesting adjectives and descriptions. We are looking forward to seeing all of their ideas come together in their diary writing!

In Science, we have been learning about microhabitats. We explored the different conditions found in microhabitats and thought about which living things might be suited to each one. The children enjoyed discussing why particular animals choose certain places to live and what they need in order to survive.
