Maths

This week in Maths we have been looking at money! We recapped our learning by recognising different coins. We then moved our learning on by comparing amounts and even moved on to notes! Today we looked at creating different amounts, by using different coins. Any practise at home with money would be amazing!

Nativity

We have been working so hard this week on our Nativity! Miss Keam and Miss Davey are so impressed with how well we have learnt our lines, dance moves and songs! We can’t wait to show you on Wednesday our amazing Christmas Production!

English

This week in English we have started looking at verbs and adverbs and the difference between them. We have been playing verb charades and had to use verbs and adverbs to describe how the poor Stickman escaped from all his traumatic events! In Guided Reading we have been looking at rhyming words and even thought of our own! We then had to show, in drama, how our facial expressions mean different things! We acted out the Stickman’s facial expressions at different moments in the story.  

Home Learning

This week we would like you to practise using money! You can take pictures of you spending, adding or creating amounts or even answer some tricky questions about money!
