Hello!
A very hot a busy week for us in Lime Tree.
In English we have continued with our 'Somebody Swallowed Staley' writing by retelling the story from Stanleys perspective. To help us get in to character we did some role play outside.
In Maths Year 1 have been solving subtraction problems (within 20) using different methods. Year 2 have being subtracting using exchanging with the help of base 10 (when crossing the tens).
In Science we have been thinking about what animals including humans need to survive (air, water, food and shelter). During our lesson we imagined we were stranded on a desert island and the children had to decide on one luxury item that would make them happy while on the island. We had a lot of yacht requests!! All week we have also been looking at our caterpillars and documenting their growth in our diaries. I think the heat has accelerated the growth of our caterpillars because only 1 week after they were delivered they are now in their chrysalises. Wriggly Caterpillars
As part of our music lessons all classes in school are taking part in the 'RPPS Big Sing'. Each class has been given a song to learn over the half term that they will perform at the end. Here is a video of Lime Tree signing our song - Start the day in a brilliant way
Just a polite reminder to ask that children are coming to school with sun cream already applied and with hats to wear. The weather is forecast to remain hot next week.
Have a lovely weekend!
