A Wonderful Week in Lime Tree Class
What a busy and exciting week we have had in Lime Tree Class!
This week, we have started exploring our new class book, What the Ladybird Heard. We have been enjoying getting to know the characters and have begun thinking carefully about how we can describe them using interesting adjectives and descriptive language.
By the end of the week, we put our learning into practice by writing our very own descriptions of the ladybird. We thought carefully about what she looks like and used descriptive words to help bring our writing to life. We are very proud of the descriptions we have created!
In Science, we have been learning all about fish. We have been finding out about their features and thinking about what makes a fish a fish.
In History, we have continued our topic on famous nurses, learning more about Nellie Spindler and Florence Nightingale. This week, we have been developing our understanding of the time period in which they lived by finding out who was monarch during their lifetimes. We have enjoyed placing historical people and events on a timeline and thinking about what life was like during this period.
In Maths, we have begun learning how to compare numbers using the correct mathematical language. We have been learning to identify when a number is greater than, less than or equal to another number and using the correct symbols, <, > and =. We have also been using cubes to represent numbers, which has helped us to compare different quantities and explain our thinking.
Another fantastic week of learning in Lime Tree Class!
