This term we have been learning the text The Enormous Crocodile by Roald Dahl. The children have thoroughly enjoyed this story and are busy innovating this text by creating their own main character.
In maths we have been focusing on multiples and the times tables. We are practising counting and recognising patterns in multiples of 2s, 5s, 10s and 3s. We are also learning the times tables facts. Some children are eager to learn all their tables. We do like to challenge ourselves so we have had a go at reading the times tables facts up to 12x!!!! We have found some super times tables songs to sing and the website 'Espresso' has some fun challenges that the children can access from the school website.
Science week has been excellent! The children have been learning about living things and are great fact finders. My team of scientists can now describe the different animal groups. Don't be surprised if they start looking under stones and leaves to find the minibeasts that we have been investigating!
