Last week we started looking at our new class text ‘The Pebble in my Pocket’ by Meredith Hooper and we planned to write a non-chronological report. In PE we are doing dance this term and the children thoroughly enjoyed putting together a small routine. In science we are looking at forces and magnets and the children investigated how well a car can travel on different surfaces. We also went to church for our Ash Wednesday service and started looking at length and perimeter in maths. Another busy week!
Last week the children were busy baking, creating and learning in a variety of ways. We wrote our pre-historic essay on the Stone Age and finished our unit of multiplication and division in maths. Children should be overly confident on the 2, 5 and 10 times tables and please continue to practice the 3, 4 and 8 times tables at home. These are the ones we have been learning in school. The children enjoyed the visit to the library and also loved the red disco after school on Friday.
Have a great half term everyone and see you in a week all recharged and ready for the new term ahead!
Over the last week and a half, Ruby class have been really creative!
We made fossils out of salt dough to link in with our science learning about what fossils are and how they are formed. We made Stonehenge out of biscuits which links in with our Stone Age learning in history. We have also been sketching prehistoric animals in art and there has been a lot of children independently baking!
