Our learning for week 4

Last week we had a treasure hunt, here are a few pictures of our maps and the treasure we had to find… did you go on a treasure hunt at home?

This week we have been using people on a bus to add and subtract amounts.

To challenge our maths addition Miss Deacon made us a bucket addition where where we threw two balls into buckets and had to work out our score. We had numicon to help us!

We have also enjoyed building boats out of junk and paper to see how they float. We have then worked together to improve our creations if they sunk. We used problem solving skills to change and adapt.

For 30 days wild this week we collected natural treasure and used it to make faces! The children loved exploring the field whilst they did this!

We have also enjoyed drawing our shadows in the sunshine and watching how they change as the sun moves around in the day.

We have looked at the story of Hansel and Gretel, mapping out the story and challenging ourselves to write about it!

Finally we looked at habitats, paying particular close attention to the rain forest habitat, we learnt lots of new facts! We also learnt about the type of animals that live in the rain forest and created our own rain forest collage for our animals! They look brilliant!

We hope you have a wonderful weekend.

From the year R team.
