English – The children have been drawing on background information to fill in the missing information about sea turtles.  They read through the information provided and sorted what they found out under the subheadings; What are they?  What habitat do they live in?  How do they sense things?  What do they eat?  How do they move?  How long do they live for?  Then they ensured that a piece of text made sense by recalling facts about sea turtles and selecting the correct word to complete factual sentences.

In Read Write Inc the red group have been reading the story ‘Our house’ and writing about their own bedroom and living room.  The blue group have been reading ‘A bad fright’ and writing about scaring people and the wicked witch in the story.  The rest of the class have been forming plurals by adding the s/es suffix to words and adding ‘es’ to nouns/verbs ending in ‘y’.

Maths – In maths this week the children have continued to look at measures.  They have been ordering length and heights using the standard units cm/m, measuring liquids in millilitres and litres and measuring temperature in degrees Celsius.  They read scales going up in intervals of 2,5 and 10.

Science – This week we have been identifying organisms as producers, consumers and decomposers.  The children used an interactive program to correctly identify each organism into these three groups.  They then independently researched these groups to find out some additional information.

Spellings – To be tested on Friday 28th June.  21.6.19

Have a lovely weekend.
