Weekly Update 20.10.23

Hello!
We have been very busy this week with more Great Fire of London learning. On Tuesday we had a special box delivered to Lime Tree Class. Inside the box was Samuel Pepys’ diary about the Great Fire of London. We read his diary entries together and highlighted the Important features: The date/time, written in first person, time words, in order, past tense and includes feelings. We also transformed ourselves in to Samuel Pepys and thought tracked how we would feel during the fire. Next week we will be writing our own diary entries in character.
For our Topic lesson we looked at what happened after the fire and how London was rebuilt differently.
In Science we looked at the importance of personal hygiene. The children were able to share lots of examples of personal hygiene and why it is needed.
In Art we finished our Great Fire of London silhouette painting - they look really effective and will be going on display for the rest of the school to see.
In Maths Year 1 have been working on bonds to 7, 8 and 9 using numicon. Year 2 have been looking at related facts and number bonds to 100.
Have a lovely weekend.
Miss Cotterill
