Hello everyone,
This week, we have continued working on adventure story features and the children have started to work on their plans for their stories, which will revolve around the eruption of Mount Vesuvius and the destruction of Pompeii.
In maths, we have been focusing on column subtraction and exchanging, as well as solving word problems involving both addition and subtraction. It's been lovely to see the children identifying the key information in the word problems, which then allows them to determine which operation they need to use.
In science, our focus has been on teeth and we conducted an experiment (or eggsperiment) which was designed to show what different liquids can do to the teeth, with the shell acting as the enamel of the tooth. We've had some super discussions as a class and it's so lovely to see how enthusiastic they are about it.
That's all for now,
Mr Kyriacou :)
