Living Things and Non- Living Things. Week Ending: 11.3.16

Hello,

In Science we have been learning about the digestive system. Did you know that food stays in your body for 24 hours? We discovered how food travels through the body and what happens along the way.

This week in Maths we have been using our measuring skills. We measured the length of different objects in the classroom using a ruler and a metre stick. Then we used the scales to measure the weight of different objects. There are 100cm in 1 metre and 10 millimetres in 1 cm. There are 1000g in 1 kilogram.

We have started to write our own non-chronological reports about space. So far we have written and designed our front cover and also we have recorded the introduction. Next week we will be carrying on with these and we will be adding some sub-headings.

Yesterday afternoon we took part in a pedestrian workshop which taught us to look both sides of the road before crossing. When there are three junctions that is called a T-junction. 

In Topic we researched living and non-living things. A living thing can move, breathe, eat, reproduce and grow. 

Congratulations to Marley who will be spending the weekend with Swoop our Learning Owl. Marley demonstrated lovely caring and sharing whilst out on the playground.

Well done to Margarita who is our Star of the Week for being a fantastic talk partner with others. 

Home Learning next week is to practise spelling the days of the week and the months of the year.

Don't forget there are parent consultations on Wednesday (16th) and Thursday (17th) March after school. We look forward to seeing you there. 

Have a lovely weekend.
