We have had another lovely week in Sycamore!

In DT, we have designed our own book sleeves. On Friday, we started to bring our designs to life, using different fabrics and fastenings.

In maths, we have moved onto learning about perimeter of figures. The children have enjoyed using their problem solving skills to work out the total length of sides.

In English, we have started our new story, Ziraffe Giraffe. This is based on a true story so the children have loved searching up facts about the adventure!

A busy week in Oak Class! We looked at hot air balloons-in particular the Albuquerque Hot Air Balloon Festival, and wrote some writing based on it-which then linked nicely to our Pathways to write book 'Sky Chasers'.

Our maths has been using the National Oak Academy to learn how to balance equations-making one side the same as the other. This has been really tricky, and I am proud of the class for powering through with this!

Finally, our music this week has been listening to leavers songs-then we are moving onto creating our own.

Next week we will be learning some first aid-how exciting!

Another fantastic week in Larch Class with the children really settling down to produce some wonderful work.

In our Writing sessions, the children have planned, wrote, and edited their own letters to King Charles X of France to explain that they are sending him a magnificent gift of a giraffe. They have also been developing their understanding of compound sentences by using a range of coordinating conjunctions.

In Maths, they have explored converting between different units of measure and have used their learning to support them in tackling word problems involving multi-step multiplication or division.

We have also worked through this terms DT topic of creating book sleeves out of fabric which incorporate their choice of fastening. We do have a little more to do to finish off but the children have worked really hard and enjoyed the activity.

What a busy week! We've started our new book 'Supertato' and as part of the topic, we are continuing to learn about growing

We've loved dressing up as superheroes, just like supertato - what would your superpower be?

We had our first Forest School Session in a while which the children loved and we celebrated one of our children's birthdays, with some kind provisions from parents.

Willow Class have had such a great start to their last half term in Reception.

The children are enjoying lots of physical development activities including PE sessions, riding bikes and scooters and they have started preparing for our Sports Day.

We are becoming such independent writers in Reception! Our focus has been on writing short sentences using our phonic knowledge and red words. The children are so good at remembering capital letters, finger spaces and full stops.

Our writing has been part of our Maths focus this week as well. We have been developing our numeral representation with numeral recognition and number formation in our Maths journals.
