This week we have enjoyed reading the story of Superworm, looking at rhyming words and compound words within the text. We discussed the 'goodies' and 'baddies' in the story and the friendship shown by the animals when they rescued Superworm. The children produced some wonderful writing about new evil characters for the story and how they got their super powers. In maths the children demonstrated just how much progress they had made in their money work, everyone had made good progress, some had made an outstanding amount of progress - well done! Also in maths we continued with the theme of worms in a 'Thinking Things Through' challenge which involved using dominoes to create worms of certain values. The children worked really well in pairs and the mental maths and mathematical discussions overheard were great. It was a shame Mr Wainwright wasn't available to come and see it.
The Julia Donaldson display is taking shape in the classroom, once again some amazing home learning creations being brought in - thank you.
Finally, I have to say a huge well done to the year 2 children who tackled their reading tests this week with determination and perseverance. I was incredibly impressed and proud of how every single one of you did your very best. Keep up the great attitude!
dear Mrs Masterman, Tom thinks that I should move into free reading because I have read 18 chapter books this year! The book I like the best was awful Auntie by David Walliams. Let me know what you think about moving into free reading. Thanks Nina Loftus
