Outstanding painting!

We have had more children doing such an amazing job with their painting this week! The quality is far more advanced than Mrs Wood ever imagined!
Thank you children for all the effort you have put into these pictures. I will put them on display very soon!

Brandon worked with Mrs O'Donnell and copied a picture of a fast car.

He took great care to look at the detail and transfer it onto paper.

Well done Brandon, we are so proud of you!

Our Class Charter

Each class was given the task this week of creating a class charter. We thought about what rules were important to us.

We have all signed an agreement saying that we will follow our class rules.

We have also set ourselves a target to achieve by the end of this term.

You can help us practise this rule at home too!

Money activities

This week we have been focusing on money in Numeracy.

We have bought items and made the correct total using coins.

We have begun working out how much change is needed when buying items from a shop.

We have also been looking at exchanging coins of the same value. We matched the purses that had the same amount, then photographed it on the iPads.

Up, up and away!

Our new topic this term is Up, up and away!

The children have been watching the film 'Up' to help them with their designing this week.

The challenge we gave the children was to design a flying machine that had something similar to the house in the film 'up'.... helium balloons!

Here is Kaitlyn' flying machine!

Here is a flying machine designed by Harley.

What a great design by Annie-May!

What an achievement!

Some children in our class haven't had a day off since we started school in September!
