    The children have had a fantastic week. 

    The children have loved their PE lessons where they have been doing jumps and sequences of movement during gymnastics and football passing and accuracy today.

    In science this week we have been looking at what makes a mammal a mammal and the different types of mammals there are. Children really enjoyed learning that there are mammals that live in the water as well as on land. This links fantastically to our visit from Safari Stu at the start of February.

    Within English this week we have enjoyed exploring the end of Anna and Crocodiles adventure in our book 'How to Find Gold'. The children wrote some fantastic sentences and poems in their English about storms today.

    In maths we have finished our place value topic to 20 and moving onto addition within 20 next week.

    The spellings for your children are the following and will be tested on Monday:

    bake, rain, play, stay, mail

    Have a fantastic reading - don't forget to log all reading and have some fun on Numbots!

    Spellings and dictation this week are:

    You,   Come,   Here,    There,    The     Can you come here please?

    This week in maths the children have been looking at numbers 10 - 20. They have made these numbers using ten frames and Dienes. They all did a fantastic job and can explain how many tens or ones are in each number. 

    In English we have looked at a picture of a girl and a crocodile pulling a boat. We thought about what they could be doing or where they could be going. We also thought about going on an adventure and what we would take with us in our back-packs. 

    In Science,  we organised animals into groups and talked about how scientists group animals - mammals, reptiles, amphibians, insects etc

    During PSCHE we thought about what keeps us healthy. We spoke about what we needed to do to stay healthy and why it was important.

    In Phonics we have been looking at the sound a_e (ay) -  Cake, bake, snake etc. See if you can spot any a_e sounds when reading.
