Autumn A
Week 5
In English the children have been retelling the story ‘Gorilla’ by Anthony Browne, in the form of a comic strip. In Maths the children have been learning to count in twos, fives, tens and threes, and making odd numbers using the rekenreks. In PSHE, the children talked to Ted to describe what it is to ‘be resilient’ and the importance of coming to school. They focused on their Oracy skills to present their discussions. In Art they continued with a PSHE focus and shared their feelings via artwork using different mediums and colours.

Week 4
In English the children have been using freeze frames to show emotions of characters from a book and writing different sentence types. In Maths the children have been estimating numbers on a number line and comparing numbers using the greater than and less than symbols. On Tuesday we had our second Music workshop Story Makers and enjoyed learning about the percussion instruments. In Science we measured our resting heart rate and heart rate after exercise. We found out that heart rate increases when you exercise. In P.E. the children learnt to send and receive a ball with their feet playing a game called ‘follow the rainbow’. In ICT we made posters to promote online safety.
Please can you listen to your child read as often as possible.
Homework will be given out on a Friday and should be brought back for the following Friday.
