What a snowy end to a busy week in Pear Tree Class! I hope you have found some time to enjoy the snow today.
In English, following their work on 'The Three Little Pigs', the children wrote their own letter to Mummy Pig, explaining what had happened to their house and asking Mummy Pig a lot of questions.
In phonics we are spending time consolidating the level 5 sounds that we have taught so far. On the whole, the children are remembering lots of their phonics sounds and are making really good progress with their reading. Thank you for your continued effort at home to make sure your child is reading their reading book at least three times a week.
In maths we have continued our work on fractions. At the start of the week, the children learnt how to find half of a quantity, using practical resources to help. Towards the end of the week, we have started to learn about quarters. On Thursday the children enjoyed finding a quarter of shapes and we discussed how there are different ways to quarter a shape
Enjoy the snowy weekend, stay safe and I will see you again on Monday,
