We have been really enjoying getting the maths equipment out to support our learning this week. The Butterflies have been using the part-whole model and base 10 to help solve addition and subtraction problems.

Butterflies Class Start of the Week this week is Daisy for being an incredibly kind friend and sharing when her friend was upset. Well done Daisy!

We have been learning all about Mary Anning, her discoveries and her challenges. Her fossil finding inspired us to create our own fossils using different types of pasta. 

Butterflies Class Start of the Week this week is McKenzie for being very brave when talking about her special people. Well done McKenzie!

Have a lovely weekend. 

We have continued our work on 'Chalk' by Bill Thompson in English this week. The children remembered lots about the story and wrote some beautiful sentences to retell it. We then drew our very own chalk dinosaurs on the playground. 

In maths we have continued to focus on number and did some excellent work on place value. We really enjoyed the practical side of this and expanding our numbers. 

In our humanities work this week we were learning about fossils and how they teach us different things about dinosaurs. We did some excellent matching of fossils to their dinosaurs end enjoyed digging to find the fossils.

Butterflies Class Star of the Week this week is Kaiden for being a kind friend. Well done Kaiden!

Have a lovely weekend.

Another busy and fun filled week in Butterflies Class!

We have started to look at the story 'Chalk' by Bill Thompson in English and it was very interesting because there were no words in the book! 

In maths we have continued to focus on number some children have even been working on using their spelling skills in our maths lessons by writing the names of numbers to one hundred.

In art, we got to make natural paints like the cavemen did by grinding berries and seeds. Great fun!

This term in PSHE we will be focusing on who is special to us, different types of families and different types of friendships and relationships. We started this week by discussing our special people and why we thought they were special. It was so heartwarming to hear all of the Butterflies talk about their special people.

Butterflies Class Star of the Week this week is Elliot for being determined and always having a positive attitude to his learning Well done Elliot!

Have a lovely weekend.

We have had a lovely first week back in Butterflies Class!

It was so nice to see and hear all of the exciting things that the children got up to over the summer holidays and it really inspired our writing in English.

In maths we have had a focus on number and the children have impressed us with their counting, sequencing and problem solving skills.

We have started on our 'Jump into the Jurassic' topic and the Butterflies loved getting their hands dirty in our dino digs. The questions and discussions during this activity were amazing.

Butterflies Class Star of the Week this week is Harvey for being determined and independent with his maths work. Well done Harvey!
