We have had a super week looking for Bog Baby in the woods!
We have learnt about caring for the wild creatures and we must look after all wildlife however small it may be.
We talked and noticed changes in ourselves from when we were a baby and to how we are now. We can move, talk eat and do many more things all by ourselves.
We compared this to the changes that happen in frog spawn to become frogs.
In number work we look at number bonds to 10 and number facts to 9.
9 is a square number we found out.
In baking we made pear crumble.
We had a lovely time listening to the Author John Kane's talking about his new book 'Whats Black and White?"
Here are a few highlights.

The children have loved learning about castles from the past this week.
We have learnt about what makes a good castle, named parts of a castle and looked at what jobs people did in a castle.
Words of the week: PAST PRESENT FUTURE
To help with this we talked about the king Charles, our present king and we had Queen Elizabeth in the past and Prince William will be our future King.
In number work we look at number facts for 6,7 and 8.
We had fun making apple crumble sandwiches.
PSED we were looking at HAZARDS in the home. Please take some time to look around your home naming hazard such as electric plugs, kettles, the fire, ect..

Welcome back after our Spring break.
We have started this term discovering many ofl the traditions of the Muslim Festival of Ramadan and Eid.
We found out that there are many similarities with other religious festival such as, decorating houses, putting on smart clothes, receiving gifts, giving to charity and eating a meal with our family and friends.
We invited Ibrahim's Mum in to talk about the Muslim Faith and all about Eid and the Five Pillars of Islam and showed us how to pray on the prayer mats.
In number work we have been adding two numbers together using are calculation method called conceptual subitising (no counting we now can see the patterns in our heads) Wow! I was very proud.
Don't forget the White Rose Free app you can download with short mental math's games your child can have a go at..
We have been thinking of kindness this week and what we need to do to be a kind friend.
In our music class we have been singing a song about under the water.
Here are a few highlights.
