In English, the children have continued to enjoy our mini-topic about Paddington Bear. This led to some great writing opportunities, including a very special invitation to our teddy bears at home – do keep a close eye on the post, as a rather special invitation will be winding its way to you!
Maths has seen the children developing their understanding of the symbols, ‘<’ and ‘>’ as well as the associated vocabulary, ‘less than’ and ‘greater than’. If you have some dice at home they will showcase their skill in not only using tens and ones, but selecting the correct symbol to compare generated two-digit numbers successfully – perhaps some may even try with 3 dice to generate bigger numbers to apply the same?
Next week we are looking forward to learning about money in our maths lessons – if you have time this weekend, it would be helpful for the children to have had a look at a variety of coins in advance of this teaching.
Have a wonderful weekend and enjoy the Summer Fair!
