Hello everyone,
This week, in English, we have started our unit of work on poetry. We have been looking at multiple Christmas themed poems and focusing on identifying things from the poems that apply to the different senses. The children have really enjoyed it and have come up with some great ideas.
In maths, we have started our unit of work on multiplication and division, with the focus being on fluency for the 3 and 6x tables, and then moving onto reasoning and problem solving.
In science, as part of our unit on States of Matter, the children were practising and testing out different equipment which they will be using as part of their experiment next week.
In computing, as part of our animation unit, the children made their own stop motion animations using whiteboards, pens and iPads. They learnt about onion skinning as well, and how useful it is when creating a stop motion animation. Here is an example of one below.
Take care,
Mr Kyriacou
