Weekly Update 21.1.22
Posted: Jan 21, 2022 by: Mrs Trotter (l.trotter) on: Maple Tree Class Blog
Hi,
Everyone has enjoyed learning more about mountains this week. The children identified the different features of mountains and mountain ranges and are developing a wide technical vocabulary on the topic. As we begin to write adventure stories, it will be the perfect opportunity to include this vocabulary to describe the settings. I am hoping for some gripping stories next week.
In my maths group, we worked hard on converting fractions to decimals and decimals to fractions. A thorough understanding has been demonstrated by the high level of reasoning problems the children have been completing and an increasing resilience to work through problems independently.
The class started their art topic on North American artists and completed some excellent pencil drawings inspired by the portrait artist John Singer Sargent.
Enjoy the weekend
Mrs Trotter
