Dinosaurs and pancakes!

What a wonderful week we have had after half term.  We have been immersed in Dinosaurs this week, in groups we created dinosaurs out of clay and then drew them and gave them names and features, we’ll use them for story writing next week.  We also celebrated pancake day and talked about the start of Lent.

Perseverance

We have continued our retelling of ‘The tiger who came to tea’ using the method of ‘talk for writing’  we have worked really hard at coming up with actions and there has been lots of teamwork!  We have also talked a lot about perseverance and not giving up and performed our song ‘Keep on keeping on’ in church.

The tiger that came to tea

This week we have loved looking at ‘The tiger who came to tea’.  To help us to be able to retell the story we have been using ‘talk for writing’  we have had fun coming up with actions and pictures to help us remember the actions.  We’ve also been looking at capacity and had a great day Friday at our Math’s café and baking for our NSPCC number day bake sale.

We love it when our siblings join in with fun!  Alfie loved making a number bead string and of course a yummy biscuit!

Star bakers!

We have worked really hard this week to understand weight.  We have thought about how to decide if an object is heavier or lighter and we’ve worked as a team to put objects in weight order.  We have also become ‘star bakers’ in the play dough area, making and decorating some beautiful cakes.
