Yahoo... we are back at school!

Congratulations
Well done to the students who have worked on "Study Ladder" during our qurentine period. these activities are extra learning fun to emphasie the learning that we do in class. This week we were learning about right angles and the different ways that we can reposition shapes. Next week we will be focusing on learning our three time table and properties of three dimensional shapes, as we hope to add the knowledge of angles we learnt this week.



English Writing 
Our writing has two focuses at the moment. We are trying to improve our grammar and editing skills as well as write interesting stories. This week we started a story online and completed it at school. We asked the children to write about their feelings about learning online. They were able to say why they liked or disliked this situation. Next week we will continue to focus our attention on increasing the amount of words that we write in a story and try to edit the story as best as we can.









 Maths
This week both online and in class we have been working towards learning and remembering our three times table. We are hoping that next week it stays in our learners heads!
We also were exposing the children to the concept of right angles and having them identify them around the classroom. 
We learned about the different words that we use in maths when we talk about how shapes can be moved. Those words are; slide, flip and rotate.
We also revisited the concept of sharing and dividing numbers and we are trying to make a connection between dividing and multiplying. 





Handwriting 
It is very pleasing to see the improvement and care that the learners have developed with regard to their handwriting and presentation of their writing. next week we will be practicing the letter f, v and w.







UOI

This week we have been thinking about the rules we have to follow. We have been wondering who makes the rules and why are rules made for us. The children worked together and wrote rules as if they were the person in charge of their home and next week we will discuss consequences and write some to match their rules.










Birthday
We had a birthday to celebrate and we enjoyed eating the yummy cupcakes.

Welcome To Week Four Hello to you all. We are now back on track and everyone is enjoying being with their friends and learning with them,  back at school.  Congratulations These people have all been busy using our "Study Ladder" app.  At various points along their learning journey, in "Study Ladder," the children are awarded certificates to highlight their progress.  Well done to you all!!! FEBRUARY We came outside to observe our calendar and discuss the unusualness of the month of February. We noted the spelling of the word and I pointed out the silent "r" that many adults forget about! We then had a guess at how many days there were in February and the discussed the reason that there are 29 days every four years in this month.  The learners thought that it was very strange that we could just add another day on to a month. PSPE The class discussed the word "Teamwork." We then shared our ideas about what makes a good team, what jobs are ...

Welcome to week 12's blog This week we were busy preparing for our assembly and we hope that you enjoyed the children's thoughts on how they have overcome an adversity in their life. The videos were sent out via the line group this week. Maths This week we have been discovering what fractions are, and how we can write them as numbers. We have learned about halves, quarters and thirds. We learned about the words "denominator" and "numerator" fractions are also useful when we are talking bout telling the time and that is what we will be investigating next week. Library miss Marie really enjoys when we visit the library. We love going there to hear her stories and choosing new books to take home. there is always an interesting activity to complete. English We are trying to expand our writing skills by including adjectives and adverbs in our sentences. In class each week we also read to  Mr. John and show what we have been doing to improve our skills at home. pa...
