Class 2 Weekly Update 21.09.18

We have had another lovely week together in Class 2 where everybody in class has been sharing their learning journey beautifully together.
In English during Read Write Inc the children have been focusing on the sounds ll, th, ng, nk, tt, ch. We have continued to learn about the importance of capital letters and full stops in sentences. The children have proofread simple sentences and have checked them extremely well.
In maths, Class 2 have had lots of practical lessons in which they have been mastering their key understandings of place value and number recognition. The children have been representing numbers in a range of different ways and I have been so pleased to hear them using their mathematical language such as more than, less than or equal to in order to show their reasoning in different scenarios.
In topic, after Penguin left us some maps for locations, we boarded our airplane at the airport and we flew thousands of miles together across the world to Antarctica. We explored what it is like there looking at landmarks, people, wildlife and weather conditions and then compared it to Shrewsbury.
We wrapped the week up today by getting messy in art using our fingers to paint. There were some very arty autumnal scenes of a Bicton school tree we decided to show moving through the season of autumn, linked to our Science topic of Seasonal Changes.
Spellings have gone home today and we are starting with the Year 1 Common Exception Words which are essentials. I would like to thank you in advance for helping your child with these. The spellings are to be learnt for a test next Friday (28.9.18). You will be able to see their tests in the back of their spelling books.
Homework- The children have been given their homework today on capital letters and full stops to link to our work in class. Please could this be completed and returned by Friday 28th September. Please feel free to write notes on the homework or in reading records to allow me to see how much support your child needed in completing their homework or reading books.
Have a lovely weekend together and see you all on Monday.

Class 5 weekly update 21.9.18

Well done to everyone in class 5 for an amazing week.

The pupils have worked hard on diary entries in English identifying the key features of this particular genre of writing, whilst also identifying the emotions the main character has experienced during chapter three. We have discussed the key events of the chapter as we have read through, highlighting how those events would make the character feel. We have also focused on using alternative words as a synonym, helping the pupils to make their writing more exciting by replacing less interesting adjectives with engaging description words.

In Maths we have worked on place value moving onto using six digit numbers and the pupils have progressed immensely throughout the week. The homework this week is an extension of the problem solving and reasoning activities we have been exploring in class. Some pupils may have already looked at the first part of the homework in class as we have made great strides in our topic today, if this is the case please don’t feel like they have to complete those questions again, just carry on from wherever they got to during today’s lesson. The homework is due in on Wednesday so if the pupils have any questions regarding the task, I can answer those at the beginning of next week before the hand in date.

Have a good weekend everyone, see you all on Monday.

Mr Sudlow.

Class 3 weekly update

English – We have been identifying nouns in sentences and writing expanded noun phrases to add more description to the noun. The children have thought very carefully about their sentence work and using lots of detail. We have also been looking at our spellings focus for the week (words starting with ‘wr’) and using these in our own sentences.

Maths – This week we have been comparing/ordering sets of objects and numbers. We have been using the symbols more than, less than and equals to compare numbers. The children have been using a range of concrete and pictorial representations of numbers and objects to help them prove and check their answers.

Science – We have been discussing the importance for humans to eat the right amount of different types of foods. We used a food pyramid to sort a selection of food into the following groups: fruit and vegetables, carbohydrates, sweets and oils, meat and fish and dairy.

Spellings – To be tested on Friday 28th September
