In English, we have started a new unit on instructions. We explored the different features of  instructions and then followed a set of instructions by making apple cake!  

In Maths, we have been focusing on number bonds to 10 and 100 and related facts. We have used knowledge we already know to help us with bigger numbers: If I know 8 + 2 = 10, then 80 + 20 = 100. We have always been proving our answers by using bar models and part part whole models.

We have enjoyed our music lesson this week by continuing to look at the short song ‘Once a Man Fell in a Well’ and focusing on how the pitch moves up and down. We then looked at 3-line staff notation and with our knowledge of the song and pitch, we completed the missing parts of the notation.  

Reminders:

• PE days are Monday and Wednesday.
