This week in phonics and grammar, we have been extending our learning around the effective use of dictionaries. The children have been using dictionaries to find correct spellings of words as well as definitions of unfamiliar words. 





In maths this week we have been learning how to effectively divide, we have been focusing on sharing before moving onto grouping. The children have been answering word problems in concrete, pictorial and abstract ways. They have also been writing out the number sentences for their calculations as well as the inverse! I am super proud of their maths work this week. 




























Before the Easter holidays the children designed and made dinosaur eggs out of mod rock. Yesterday they had the opportunity to paint their eggs, they referred back to their designs to ensure their painted was accurate to what they had designed!

 Last week in science we were identifying the parts of a plant. The child have been able to recall the names of the parts of a plant well. The children used different materials to represent the different parts of a plant. On completion of their model, the children labelled their creations! This week the children have been learning about the functions of the parts of a plant, they recorded these in a table.  We have begun our athletics learning and preparation for sports day. This week the children recalled and added to their knowledge of long jump. We discussed the technique in detail and it was modelled to the children before having a go themselves. The children measured their own jumps using the metre sticks. The children are showing a greater understanding and confidence of measuring length this year.  Pancake making - Group 2 Our maths learning has been focused around measuring this week (frustratingly Miss Blake forgot to take any pictures earlier this week!).

This week we enjoyed being Geographers! Using a map of the school the children negotiated their way round and decided whether different features within the school grounds were human or physical. We shared a Powerpoint presentation to remind ourselves of what human and physical features were, along with the examples on the Powerpoint, the children were able to give their own examples too. The children used the map that I had made for them but were very resourceful in adding additional diagrams and labels to their maps.
