Hello to our lovely Starlings family and welcome back to our weekly class blog.

The children have enjoyed another fun-filled week of learning in school and have been impressing us all so much with their resilience, super attitude to learning and their smiles.

Maths

In Maths this week we have been exploring number bonds and now we are moving onto subtraction.

Why not challenge us to make a number bonds rainbow at home and see how well we can recall them now!

 

Science

In Science we are making the most of the changes in our outdoor environment in school by using our senses to identify signs of Spring on a scavenger hunt. We have also been looking at the weather and exploring how the weather changes with the seasons.

History

This week in History we have learned all about what the past is and we have enjoyed writing sentences about something we enjoyed doing which is in the past.

Spellings

You will find spellings in your reading diary, but for your reference, this week’s words are

The quiz will take place on Friday 26^th March so please practise at home beforehand, thank you! 😊

 

Wishing you all a lovely, safe and happy weekend.
