Another busy week. In English the children have been re-telling our class text ‘The Great Balloon Hullaballoo’ I have been impressed with the quantity of writing the children have produced, we are working really hard on our handwriting and spelling. In Maths we have been comparing numbers and have managed to take some of our learning outdoors despite the weather. Our artwork has been linked to of flight topic and the children have been studying the work of the artist Paul Klee and produced some beautiful wax resist paintings.The children have been investigating the properties of materials in Science and learning about fair testing. Dance has been great fun, the children composing short sequences based on balloon flight. Finally, the children have loved contributing to the Macmillan Charity cake sale and enjoyed sampling some of the delicious cakes.
