Lots of opportunities to use our new folding and cutting skills
Our finished rockets
|
As part of our DT project on rockets we have been trying to master the skills of cutting and folding. Cutting in straight lines and zigzags and then folding paper up into 32 triangles!!!!! Thank you Ms Rowe for such a great time in the Wildwood. Today we planted runner beans, went on a worm hunt (yes worm hunting), on a spring hunt and a spring nature walk. This week we are going to continue to use our ten frames, blocks and counters to show our understanding of Ten and 1s Awesome work carried out in handwriting practice so far today!   Please take a look at this video on BBC iPlayer - Numberblocks - Series 5: What's My Number? It is good for recognition of numbers. Give it a go and then try it with objects around the home. For example, how many eggs in an egg carton?
The children were shown how to draw pictures of different transport using a video and following it step by step; Here is the link: Easy drawing of Air Trasport/ Typed of Transport Part:2 - Bing video  Well would you believe it, the children have now been back in school for a week. They have all settled in very well and I'm proud of each and every one of them. They have all been working so hard and looking forward to the new topics that they will be learning about. I am hoping that you can join-in with their leaning as the children start to learn about the Greatest Inventions: Transport. I will be sending a piece of paper home so that each child can draw and label their favourite mode of transport and find something out about the history of it. For example when was the first car built? In Music the children will be learning songs about transport and learning make and play simple instrument.
and then in Science learn about Polar adventures and carry out experiments to see if their predictions were correct. Maths this half term is on Addition and Subtraction (within 20) then we will be working on Place Value. Within English we will be looking at non-fiction and fictional texts as well as looking at poems, rhyming, labeling and writing letters. |
