‘A Stepping Stone into the Future’

Autumn B

Week 4

 

This week in English the children have been sorting fiction and non-fiction texts and looking at the differences. We have started to write facts about hedgehogs, by taking notes and then using them in our writing.   In Maths the children have been learning about 2D shapes and their properties, including the number of sides and corners as well as sorting them into groups using their own criteria.  We have continued to learn our songs and lines for the Christmas performance in the coming weeks. In Art we have looked another artist Paul Klee and created an example of his work using water colours.
