This week in maths we have been learning about money and time. During our money lessons we have practiced adding together different amounts of money using pretend plastic money to help us. We have looked at the value of different coins, and practiced paying for different items in ‘Robins’ Shop’. In our time lessons we have practiced telling the time to o’clock and half past. The Year 2’s have also looked at telling the time on digital clocks.
In our literacy lessons we have been practicing writing lists and labels, talking about our favorite clothes. We have written fantasy shopping lists and labels describing our favourite clothes.
In science we have continued our learning about life cycles – this week we learned about the life cycle of a butterfly, and created our own drawings of that life cycle.
In our topic lessons we have continued our learning about our neighbourhood and community by designing a new amenity for Ilam – we have had some fantastic ideas from sweet shops up treehouses to a slide around the school! We have also designed posters to tell cars to slow down outside school.
As promised on last weeks Blog, below are photographs of our classroom displays. We have worked hard doing lots of art, geography and writing to go on the displays. We hope you like the results!
