Happy New Year!

We hope you all had a lovely holiday.

This week we have been learning:

Maths – We counted on from 10. We quickly realised that counting on from 10 is a lot easier than counting on from other numbers. We then partitioned our second number using a part whole.

5+7= 12  

5     2

10+2= 12

English - Introduced to The Great Explorer text. We predicted where Tom was going on his adventure using the word 'because'.

Big

Elephants

Can

Always

Understand

Small

Elephants

Science – Introduced our new topic ‘Materials’

History - We have started to look at a famous explorer.

Next week we will be:

Maths – Number bonds to 20 (1+19, 2+18, 3+17, 4+16, 5+15  Etc. )

English – Our weekly focus words are: Why, When, What.

We will be writing a recount of Tom’s adventures focussing the suffix ‘ed’

Science – Looking at materials that are transparent, opaque and flexible.

History - We will be finding out more information about who this famous explorer is.

Please practise Week 1 spellings in the homework book and continue logging on to Mathletics. 

Have a lovely weekend.
