week beginning 1st February 2016

This week in English we have been continuing with our story about the Frog Prince. The children have thought about how this story might be reported in more modern times and have looked at some of the different ways the news is reported. They have had a go at writing a news report and have recorded each other presenting the news using the iPads. In maths we have been revisiting measuring. The children have established that everything is measurable depending on the units used. We have introduced the standard unit centimetres and the children have been applying their prior knowledge of how to complete a fair measure to using rulers to measure objects within the classroom. This week's topic will be looking at different homes around the world and exploring the similarities and differences between them. Our next reading event is this Friday. It will take place in the hall from approximately 9:15 (or as soon as the children are all in and registered) to 10:15 - we hope to see you there.
