A shorter than usual week this week but still a very busy one.
In English we have been planning and writing a recount of Florence Nightingale's Visit. The children have written some wonderful recounts using time words to help them structure the order of events. It was lovely to read how much they all enjoyed meeting Florence.
In maths we have been finding 10 more and 10 less of numbers. We have been using a 100 square to help us. We have been looking at how the 'ones' stay the same. This week's homework is a reinforcement of this important concept and all the children should have brought home a 100 square to help them with this.
This week we have started learning the songs for our Christmas Play 'Prickly Hay'. Next week the children will be given their parts and will be taking words home to learn.
Unfortunately we were not this week's winners of the 'Aslan Reading Challenge'. However there has been a big improvement in the amount of reading at home and the scores were very close. Let's keep reading and hopefully Aslan will be ours next week! Once again, thank you for your support in listening to your child read at home it really does make a big difference to their progress.
I hope the children enjoy their extra day off school tomorrow.
