Hello and welcome back to Starlings Class Blog,

Starlings have had yet another busy and exciting week, continuing to make Miss Gillam and Mrs Southern proud each and every day. Our Christmas rehearsals have begun and we are busy preparing for our exciting trip to MOSI in Manchester next week.

We have yet another busy week ahead of us next week.

Reminders

  • Tuesday 26th November – Starlings trip to MOSI.  
  • Wednesday 27th  November – Christmas Fair starting from 2pm
  • Thursday 28th November– Whole School Christingle in Church

Maths

This week, our Maths work will focus on counting backwards. We will discuss the mathematical term ‘subtraction’ and use objects to help us to make links with what we know already about addition. We will continue to use our Part-Whole and Bar Model to explore the inverse. We will then solve mixed addition and subtraction problems towards the end of the week.

Writing

Starlings are excited to be writing their own special recount of a day in the life of ‘Nibbles’ this week. They have created a story pathway, mapping out the key events from the story and are making changes to what story ‘Nibbles’ might choose to nibble into next. They will be writing a recount of his day as a big write this week.

Topic

In our Topic lessons we will be completing activities linking to our trip to MOSI this week. We will learn more about a famous bike race, local inventors and will reflect on our time spent in such a wonderful museum.

Homework

  • 3 reads - Please make sure that you keep all 3 reading books in your book bag each day. You should have a home reading book, RWI book and a book bag book. We are getting closer to our raffle ticket draw. I am hoping for our first Starlings Winner!
  • Maths Challenge – Can you use your own toys to make a Part-Whole?  Can you write number sentences for your Part-Whole?
