Dear Parents

Sorry this is a little late! Time is whizzing away and Friday’s just pass us by!
In English last week we looked at a number of poems about pirates. We thought about which ones were our favourites and then had a vote. We all really liked the funny ones best!   Later in the week we wrote our own repeated phrases and made poems in small groups. 

In maths we continued our work on halves or numbers using our bar models to share equally and solving problems.

Later we moved on to counting in 2’s which we are continuing with this week, learning how to count in 2’s on a number line and looking for pairs in different places! We had fun sorting the shoes and wellies!

We have started rehearsing our Nativity and a letter will be coming out tomorrow with the costumes that your child will need in school for the performance.

In RE we have been learning all about Saint Francis of Assisi and thought about the qualities that Saints have. We also looked at the Liturgical Calendar and thought about special times for Christians during the year.
