The children had a fantastic day on Monday at Chirk Castle! There are many more fantastic photos to appear on the website, I will do my best to get these on this weekend 🙂
English: We have continued with our instruction writing and looking specifically at time vocabulary e.g. first, second, next, then, after that, etc. The children have enjoyed making up their own special creature and writing instructions on how to catch it.
Maths: We have finished off our work on position and direction, the children enjoyed playing on the play ground with PE equipment and following instructions on where to place the objects e.g. inside a hoop, on the left hand side of the bench… year 2 children also recapped on clockwise, anticlockwise, 1/4, 1/2 and 3/4 turns and continuing patterns of shapes.
History: In our topic this week the children designed their own coat of arms and wrote about their favourite things to decorate it.
Phonics: Year 1: alternative spelling for the ‘oa’ and ‘m’ phoneme.
Year 2: alternative spellings for the vowel phonemes.
Spellings: Spellings to be tested on 7.4.17
31.3.17 spellings
Homework: I would like year 2 children to complete pages 10, 35 and 36 of their KS1 Maths SAT Buster book please and hand in for Friday 7th April. If year 1 children could have a practise at counting in 2’s, 5’s and 10’s this would be great as we have been doing this in some of our starter lessons in maths.
Have a good weekend!
