The children have had a great first week back after the Easter holidays.
In English they have been learning their new Talk4Writing text, a recount called Penguin’s Day Out. They have also been learning about the features they need to include when they write their own recounts – past tense verbs, time adverbials and first-person pronouns.
In Maths this week we have been counting in 2s, 5s and 10s and using numicon to help us find the answers to repeated addition number sentences such as 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 =.
Also this week, the children went on a walk around the school grounds to look for signs of spring. Finally in History we have begun our Space topic and have been learning facts about Neil Armstrong, the first man to walk on the moon.
