Week 4

On Friday, we honoured Mary by placing flowers around her. The children were respectful throughout. Then the children sat in the peace garden and sketched a picture of Mary.

This week we have been learning to order and compare numbers on a number line. If the number line ended in 20, we thought about what number would be in the middle, then we looked at what the number line could be counting in – ones, twos, fives or tens.

In English, we have been learning about plurals, when to add s and when to add es. We have also been practising to spell tricky words and Year 1 words, please continue to practise at home.

In Science we have been learning about the different parts of a plant. Next week we will be asking questions about apples to help us to plan how we might find the answers to our questions. Please bring an apple in on Wednesday, we will be using them for Science and printing in Art.

In Science, we read an article in the news about the new rover Perseverance that landed on the moon. The children wrote their own news reports on it. Jack P then made a lego rover at home.

We planted potatoes in the school gardens so we will be watering them each day and observing the changes.
