This week's learning!

The children have had a fantastic couple of days!

In literacy we have been learning more about life in space and two particular astronauts. The children created biographical accounts on Tim Peake and Chris Hadfield, learning about the special missions they completed! Can they tell you what they were?

In numeracy we have been finishing our work on telling the time to the half hour and matching it to the digital clock! We have also been working on our 2 and 5 times tables. Ask your child if they can count in 2s or 5s going up the stairs tonight?

In Art we started our portraits topic, looking at self-portraits. I think we have some budding artists amongst us! We also learned about pitch in Music, using a low and high voice to sing songs. Can your child sing a nursery rhyme in Daddy Bears deep voice?

With all this fantastic learning going on the children have been collecting many Dojo points for perseverance and being focused on the task! This week’s top Dojo scores came from Jolan and Orson. Well done boys!
