Autumn 2, Week 1

We have had a busy week, learning about and planning our our Willow Pattern fables in English. We have also completed online adverb activities using spag.com and explored when to use the words a or an. The children all did very well in their adverb spelling tests – thank you for supporting their learning at home.

In maths we have been estimating and exploring measurement and mass. We have been working hard to read and interpret scales. Next week, we will be regrouping using cherry models to add and subtract. Please click on the link below to see and example of the activities we will be doing.
