Weekly Update 24.11.23

Hello!
Another week has flown by as we are nearly at the half way point in Autumn 2.
The children have continued to enjoy our Art this week and learning about famous artists. We have been mixing colours with white, this week, to create 'tints'. The children used these tints to create a 'Paul Klee' inspired picture.
In English we have been describing the setting of the island where the Wild Things live. We have used our senses to imagine the things that we might see, hear, feel and smell. Next week we will be starting our new focus 'fantasy' text!
In Maths Year 1 have been looking at subtraction using the part-whole model and finding the difference. Year 2 have continued to add multiples of 10 to a 2-digit number. We have also started to look at adding pairs of 2-digit numbers where there is no crossing of the tens.
The children in Year 2 should all have taken their lines for the Christmas play home with them today. Their homework is to practise their lines. Your help with this is very much appreciated! Year 1 will be told their parts and will start practising their dances next week.
I look forward to seeing some of you at the Christmas Fayre on Saturday!
