 The children loved their triple jump lesson this week! They applied their mathematical knowledge and understanding when measuring the distance they had jumped.  This week we planted our sunflower plants; it was a VERY hard job because the ground was so dry and solid.  This week we looked at the features of a Haiku poem and focused particularly on the syllables within a Haiku poem. The children used instruments to tap out the syllables within words.   We made bread in DT! Our bread was a huge success and the children worked very hard when weighing out the ingredients for our bread.  We have been working on volume and capacity this week and comparing different amounts!

 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!).
