NSPCC Number Day. Week Ending: 03.02.17

Today we came to school wearing a number because it is NSPCC number day. We have been using our problem solving skills. Take a look at some of our photos. 

This week during our English learning we have been coming up with adjectives and expanded noun phrases to describe colours. We thought about different colours and used these within a poem. We came up with this poem as a class. 

Red is like a hot, blazing sunset.
Red smells like burning fire.
Red is for lava.

Blue looks like the wide, dark sea.
Blue is like an ice cube melting on a plate.
Blue tastes like a big, juicy blueberry.

Yellow feels like the burning, warm sun.
Yellow is the custard on my crumble.
Yellow is the sound of buzzing, bumble bees.

In Topic this week we have been thinking about the weather. We discussed what a weather chart needed to include so that next week we can record the weather and the temperature in Redbourn. 

Home Learning this week is to collect data on a topic of your choice, like favourite sport / colour or animal. Then use that data to create a tally chart / bar graph or pictograph. This will help you as next week in maths we will be learning how to read statistics and data.

Well done to Charlotte who is our Star of the Week for being a supportive talk partner. Charlotte has demonstrated fantastic communication skills.

This weekend Snowy will be going home with Holly because Holly has impressed Snowy with her independence and risk taking skills.

Next Wednesday Year 2 will be walking down to St. Mary's church to find out about why a church is a special place for Christians. Please make sure your child has a warm coat to wear that day. 

Don't forget tonight is the school disco! 

See you there!
