A fabulous first week back! We have been looking at China in our Learning Means The World theme ‘Come fly with me Asia’. We have been looking at Chinese artefacts, writing our names in Chinese and we even made a Chinese restaurant in our home corner! We also talked about Remembrance Sunday and made poppies, our tree is looking amazing!
We took part in our first gymnastics PE session with the coach. We looked at the correct form and posture needed to create a safe and controlled forward, pencil, tuck and backwards roll. We had a great time and can’t wait for next week to learn new skills.
In our theme of ‘Zero To Hero’ we have been looking at Thomas Eddison who created the lightbulb and how we use this invention daily. We then looked at how we can make lightbulbs and other equipment work using electricity with mains power and battery power. We looked at different batteries and thought about what toys we had at home that needed batteries to work.

If you are ever stuck on how to add 3 digits together just ask one of us! We are amazing and found that we could use our 10’s frames to place each number. We then realised that once we had made them the other number was easy to see. We are experts now and were able to answer some mastery questions.

As part of R.E. we have been learning about Moses and how important he is within the Jewish religion. We looked at the early years of Moses and designed a slider to show Moses floating along the river in his basket. We then read the story of the Burning Bush and how God instructed him to go and release the Israelites. After that, we looked at how Passover is celebrated and we designed our our Sedar plate then thought about all the ways we are thankful and added tham to our Menorah candles.
