Maths this week and request for 1p and 2p coins

This week we have concentrated on numbers. The children have practised counting to 10, 20 and even higher!

We have ordered numbers, said which numbers are bigger or smaller, estimated how many objects then carefully counted.

The class has shown an interest in setting up a Cafe this week, so next week we will be concentrating on money – role play shop / cafe / burger van / ice cream parlour.

We would be grateful if you have any spare 1p and 2p coins if you could donate them to the class to give the role play a more authentic experience for the children.

Also if you have any old pots/ pans / trays / bowls / cutlery etc, we would love them for our role play areas.

Class 3 Weekly Update

English: This week the children have done some creative writing, imagining what it would be like to return home after a long mission in space. All the children were focusing on using descriptive language and conjunctions in their work. The Year 3 children have also continued their learning on paragraphs this week and the Year 2 children have continued their work on conjunctions.

Maths: We have been learning about division this week in Class 3. The children have been solving a variety of different problems using equipment and pictures to help them and some of the Year 3’s have been challenge to use their times table knowledge to help them.

History: This week we have learned about Robert Falcon Scott and his expedition to the South Pole.

Art: The children have been doing some lovely art work on planets again this week.

RE: We have been thinking about how Christian’s remember the nativity story in their own celebrations and have looked at a number of different Christmas Carols and have been looking for parts where they mention the nativity story.

PE: The children have continued their games lessons this week.

Well done Class 3 for another hard working week!
