In Maths, the children began an exciting new topic all about money. They were introduced to different coins and learned to recognise their values. Next week, we’ll move on to exploring notes and how to count coins – a great opportunity to practise real-life skills!

 

In English, the children completed their brilliant “How to be a Dog, Cat or Rabbit” guidebooks. They worked so hard on their writing, and I was incredibly impressed by their creativity, effort and final results – well done, everyone!

 

In RE, we listened to the story of The Prodigal Son and reflected on the theme of forgiveness. The children thought carefully about times they have said sorry and experienced forgiveness.

 

In Computing, the children enjoyed using the Chromebooks to explore the keyboard. They learned how to type their names, use capital letters, add spaces between words and even how to delete mistakes.

English- The children will begin a new unit of work based on the book ‘Iggy Peck, Architect’ by Andrea Beaty and David Roberts
