We are already getting close to the end of January, time is just flying by!
We have continued our work on our topic 'Changes' this week. The children have been learning about The Equator and what the climate is like in countries that are near to it. We have used maps to locate some countries and continents that are close to it.
In maths the children are really enjoying our work on division and multiplication. We have been solving some mixed number sentence problems using different strategies. We are beginning to work on our mental recall of facts for the 2,5 and 10 Times Tables so any work at home working on the quick mental recall of these facts would be appreciated and help to improve the children's speed.
The Cinderella story has really grabbed the children's attention. This week we have been writing invitations to the Royal Ball.
On Wednesday we had Tony, 'The Music Man' from Music for Schools, talking to the children about learning to play a Brass or Woodwind instrument. There is a link on the letter they brought home with all the information needed. At this point we are looking at interest in learning an instrument and it may be that lessons do not start for children until Year 3.
Enjoy your weekend.
