Our Learning

This is what our week looks like in Hedgehogs class:

Our class learning

September

We have been really busy since coming back to school this month. The children have settled in very well and are adjusting quickly to the new expectations, working at tables and doing their home learning. Please remember to read to your child at least three times each week.

In Literacy, we have been reading Hairy Maclary and thinking about adjectives. We have rewritten the story, made changes to it and are working on writing our own story about animals causing chaos! The children have had some great ideas about what could happen in their own stories. We started by sorting animals into whether we would see them on a farm or at a zoo and then used them for our new stories.

In maths, we have been learning about place value and number bonds. We have worked a lot with different resources to show the tens and ones in a number. Please practise number bonds to 10 and 20 at home as they are such a key part of maths knowledge.

In Art, we have been studying Paul Klee. We discussed our opinions about his paintings and how he uses tessellation. We then practised mixing colours to find the right tint to match his painting.
