Red Nose Day – Friday 20th March
End of Spring term Friday 27th March 1.15pm
We are continuing to explore numbers up to 50 through counting by making groups of ten. We will also be learning how to partition any number up to 50 into tens and ones and be using number lines to complete simple problems for numbers up to 50.
It is British Science Week so we will be completing a range of exciting activities linked to this. We will launch this special event by having an interactive assembly on Monday. The children will then have lots of fun carrying out investigations linked to different Scientists throughout the week.
In History we will be learning about the Wright Brothers and writing a class fact file using our research about these significant historical figures.
In Art we will be using our nature themed plans from last week to make our own tiles in the style of William Morris.
In mindfulness, we will be continuing to explore our inner calm. Like a bottle of fizzy drink we all have bubbles inside of our tummy and sometimes when we feel a big emotion we feel ‘shaken’ and can feel the bubbles rising up. We will learn to use our breath to help us calm our bubbles on the inside.
Children will be bringing home real and fake words to add their sound buttons to, in preparation for the phonics screening check.
