Autumn 1 Week 3

The children started their week by designing their own alien and writing descriptive paragraphs about them. They later edited this writing and published it for display. I’m sure you’ll agree that they have worked very hard on these.  Next week, they will be introduced to the world of poetry.

In RE they have learnt about initiation and how we greet and welcome others. Next they will be looking at initiations within the Church.

In Maths, they have used they knowledge of how to double numbers to add near doubles. Dominoes is a great game for practising doubling, halving, addition, subtraction and finding odd and even numbers. Next week they will be looking at the different denominations of  money and using them to calculate amounts.

In Art, they have used observation skills to sketch objects they have collected. Next week, they will be using a range of materials for mark making.

In PE, they have applied their dodging and problem solving skills to play various games. I have been very impressed with their team work and the way in which they encourage each other.

This afternoon, we watched Alice in Wonderland, which was very exciting.

Have a lovely weekend
