The children have continued to enjoy our writing work based on the book 'The Smartest Giant in Town'. This week they have been writing letters to the giant from the fox. We have been thinking about the important features of an informal letter and using them in our own writing.
In maths we have been looking at finding a third of shapes, objects and numbers. The children are beginning to see the links with multiplication and division.
We are continuing to work on our quick recall of times tables facts for our 2's, 5's and 10's. We have had some more children this week who have managed to achieve their certificates for all 3 and gain their special badge. Your help, at home, in learning these important facts is much appreciated.
In science the children have been making careful observations of their bulbs that they planted last week. They have also been learning about the different parts of a flower. Hopefully our bulbs will begin to grow before the Easter holidays.
This week in our topic work 'Yeadon Explorers' we have been looking at the Human and Physical features of Yeadon. Next week we will be looking at how Yeadon has changed over the past 100 years. As part of our topic we will be having a local walk to the Tarn in the last week of term. Letters will be coming home soon!
Have a wonderful weekend.
