Term 2

We have lots of exciting opportunities for the children this term and we are also very excited about learning the songs and lines for our Christmas Nativity!

In Maths this term we begin to move our learning towards addition and subtraction where the children will be solving problems and applying the strategies taught to solve number calculations.

Today we wrote number sentences for our block towers. We used the language of part, whole, plus, altogether and equals.

The texts we shall be looking at in English this term are 'The Three Billy Goats Gruff', 'Goldilocks' and 'The Snowman' the children will be given lots of opportunities to develop their speaking and listening skills before retelling the stories themselves. 

Today, we had to unjumble pictures from our new text that had been mysteriously cut up! We managed to piece the pictures together to reveal our new text 'The Three Billy Goats Gruff'. We then enjoyed listening to the story.

Geography -  Where in the school are we?

Today we learned about geographical human and physical features. We explored our school environment to find the different features. Back in the classroom we then sorted different the different features.

Design Technology -  What makes a structure strong? - Bends or joins?

Religious Education - Who made the world?

We have been learning how Christians worship God and how they live in ways to please him. We explored our reflective area, sang songs and shared prayers. 

Music - Why do we have to sing in time with each other?
