English

We started to read our new book - Paddington! We wrote some super sentences about Paddington, wrote our own sentences for making a marmalade sandwich and then made our own sandwich following the instructions.

See our pictures here.

Phonics

All of us have been practising putting sound buttons on our words ready for our phonics screening.

Maths

We measured mass using the balance scales and measured height and length using cubes.

R.E.

We learnt two new words this week - parish and community. We thought about all of the different people that make up the Church parish and wrote questions for people like Father Michael and Mrs Wilson, who are a part of our parish.

Science

We used our senses to identify any signs of summer.

See our pictures here.

PSHE

We learnt how to set a goal that we can achieve as a class. We decided to set a goal of using lead-ins in our handwriting.

We also talked about how change can be tricky to overcome. We drew pictures of ways that we can make ourselves feel better if change gets too much for us.

Art

We sketched minibeasts and then used pastels to add detail and colour.

We also made Father's Day cards for our Dads.

PE

This week, we learnt how to throw overarm. We threw beanbags as far as we could and practised throwing into hoops.

See our pictures here.
