We are glad to see you all back refreshed and ready to learn. This week we have started lots of new learning. In English we have started reading the Michael Morpurgo version of the Pied Piper and it is inspiring our learning. This week we learnt all about rats: did you know they have such strong teeth that they can bite through glass and metal? We sorted our rat information into groups and created subheadings for each one, we practised using conjunctions to extend our sentences and wrote up our own report about rats.
In Art we started learning about Matisse and how he ‘drew with scissors’ to make huge, colourful collages. Our Homework is all about this amazing artist. In RE we started learning about the story of Jonah and the whale and Noah’s Ark.
In Maths we have been working on complements of numbers that make 100 using a hundred square and fact families. In Science we started our new topic by learning about the bones in our body, why we have bones and what would happen if we didn’t have bones. We all loved creating our own life size skeleton and looking carefully at how they all connect. Take a look at the photos below.
