Hello,
This week in Maths we have been busy using empty number lines to add and subtract two digit numbers. We have also been estimating where numbers go on a empty number line.
We became authors this week in English as we retold the story of The Ugly Duckling. Before we wrote our retelling we created a story plan. Our challenge was to use speech marks, story language and to think about the tense the story was written in.
In Dance we have started to create a routine to the song 'Singing in the Rain'. We used umbrellas as props. If you have an umbrella at home you can bring this in on a Wednesday to use during our Dance lessons.
Today we became scientists as we explored how ice changes from a solid to a liquid. In a solid the atoms are close together whereas in a liquid the atoms are not as close together and they start to move.
In PSHE we watched a clip from the film Inside Out. We spoke about Joy's challenge and how she could achieve it. We then thought about how we could break our own challenges down into smaller steps.
Yesterday we had great fun down at Forest School. It was a lovely sunny afternoon and we spent time creating a map of Forest School using a birds eye view.
Home Learning this week is to research an inventor and to explain why their invention is important today.
Congratulations to Faye who is taking home Swoop this weekend. Faye really concentrated during our Science investigation today by asking really good questions and making a sensible prediction.
Well done to Kitty who is our Star of the Week. Kitty has been going for her challenge leaf which was to use speech marks within her writing.
Have a good weekend
Chestnut Class
