Our Week - W/C 13th March 2023

It has been a much shorter week this week with all the strikes. We hope you have all managed to have some family time and get outside into this lovely weather. Spring is definately in the air after last week snow storm.

When we have been here this week the children have been really involved in our Hisoty topic looking at toys from the past and present. We were very lucky thanks to Miss Jones to have a selection of toys from the past that she had brought in from her childhood. Thanks Miss Jones. The children have been fab at comparing the past toys to those in the present. We also started to create a toy timeline from the 1800's up to present. The children made some great comparisons of toys then and now.

In English we have been continuing to look at adjectives and time connectives in Year One. Year One have been writing a diary entry this week from Oscars perspective who is the main character in our topic book. They have written a diary entry about their time at the 'Missing Mammoth Museum'. In Reception the children have been looking at different scenes in the book and adding adjectives and descriptive sentences to parts of the story. Mrs Dykes and I have been so impressed with the childrens adjective knowledge particularly those in Reception so well done all.

In maths we have been finishing up place value to 50 in Year One and Place Value to 20 in Reception and Year One. Next week we are excited to start looking at measurements looking at 'Length and Height'.

On Friday we are super excited for our Mothers Day Crafts with the PTFA and for our Comic Relief fundraising throughout the day. A special thanks to the PTFA and The Fun and Games Council for their fantastic organising.

A short but lovely week all.

Mrs Greenway and Mrs Dykes.
