Weekly Update - 20.11.20

We have had an excellent week in Lime Tree Class which started with a visit from a very special person! On Monday afternoon we had a visit from Florence Nightingale, who came in to school to help us understand more about our topic for this half term. All our children took a lot from the afternoon and they thought of some fantastic questions for Florence to further their learning. We took on roles as nurses and porters to clean up our pretend hospital and look after an injured soldier, which you can see our pupils enjoyed in the pictures below!
Our Florence Nightingale experience has helped to direct our English learning this week and we have produced some lovely recounts of the day from our childrens perspective, as well as beginning to write instructions on how to make our very own lamp!
In Maths our Year 1 children have continued to work on Subtraction, using a number line, part whole models and pictures to help them. Our Year 2 pupils have started a new unit this week relating to money. We have looked at the different coins and notes used in the UK and started to combine them to make different amounts.
