We had a great week at school. We enjoyed learning with each other and playing in the sunshine. We had our first trip to ‘Jannyland’ and loved exploring and playing with the free play items.
Last week our main focus was continuing to read our class novel, ‘Borrowers’ by Mary Norton. We explored the comprehension strategy – making connections and discussed some very current themes connecting to the story plot. We enjoyed building our own Borrower model homes and we are very proud of them. In mathematics, we have been revisiting area and we completed a garden design challenge. We all had fun on Friday celebrating diversity day and enjoyed a game of bingo!
We are all excited about our last week of term three! Only four more days to go!
We have had a great first week back at school. We have enjoyed reuniting with our friends and familiarising ourselves with classroom routines. It has been so lovely to learn together again.
This week our main focus has been on settling back into school however we have also been busy starting our class novel, ‘Borrowers’ by Mary Norton. Our literacy work is going to centre on this text. This week we have been working on the comprehension skills – prediction, visualisation and making connections. In numeracy we have been revisiting algebraic equations.
Next week we are going to design and build a small model house for the Borrowers. Can I ask everyone to bring in an old shoe box or a cardboard box and any small house hold items that they might want to use in the model for example bottle tops, buttons, small cardboard boxes, scraps of material etc. Any extra boxes would be appreciated for pupils who are unable to take in objects from home.
