Week beginning 29.02.2016

This week in English we have continued to look at the story of the Three Little Pigs. All of the children have thought about what happened next to the Three Little Pigs. We drew a story map using pictures and the children became authors by writing their ideas. In maths we have been exploring weight- how heavy or light things are and comparing objects. We learnt that big objects aren't always the heaviest and small objects aren't always the lightest. The children carried out an investigation to fill a carrier bag so that that heaviest objects were at the bottom and the lightest items at the top! In topic we have been looking at different materials and their uses. The children have been on a materials hunt and carried out experiments to see which materials could be used instead of bricks for walls and glass for windows. This Friday 4th is our BIG BOOK SHARE - please come along and share a book with your child. Parent teacher interviews are next week- please check with your class TA to confirm your date and time.
