Happy Friday 24th September to you all,
I hope you are all well. We have had yet another super week in the Super Squirrels class. Lots more virtual marbles in the virtual marble tin for super learning. Squirrels have been discussing positive learning behaviours and applying it to their learning.
In Super Squirrel class this week, we have completed our unit on place value. Our new unit in maths is addition and subtraction.
In handwriting, Squirrels have bee practising letter formation and thinking about the relative sizes of the letters. Yr 3 have been looking at the suffix 'ly' and the spelling rules that apply. Yr 2 have been busy working on their sentence structure ensuring that 'every sentence every time' is neatly written, phonetically plausible and punctuated correctly.
In our mantle the children have been using iPads and non fiction books to research which animals would live in an ancient oak tree. Squirrels were very excited to learn about the famous 'Major Oak' tree and imagine the possible stories from Sherwood Forest that it may hold. They were astounded by its size and tried to imagine its width - 11 meters!
You can view Major Oak here.
I hope you all have a wonderful weekend. Hopefully the sun will continue to shine
From Miss Swain and Daphne
