Well its been another week all about Africa. We have compared the similarities and differences between our country and Kenya. Animals, schools, towns and cities, fruit and vegetables and the environment.
Ask your child how many countries there are in Africa and see if they can find Kenya.
We have been looking at teen number in maths again this week and now we understand how a teen number is made we can now easily put the numerals in order.
We have used clay to make repeating pattern like on many of the clothes, jewellery and textiles in Africa.
Very exciting new about the play ground JW Road Marking have for free transformed our playground and it looks amazing. It was great fun watching.
