Week 1 - Owl Board

In English, we completed a treasure hunt to reveal our English learning this half-term... fantasy stories linked to Robots! The children worked eagerly to put the pieces on the correct tables, piece them together and then write words to describe the robot they had made. Based on the children's enthusiasm, we then enjoyed drawing our own robots in the afternoon. There were all sorts of weird and wonderful robot attributes!

Story Predictions in English - we had some picture snippets and vocabulary from the story, and wrote our predictions.

In Science, we measured and compared speed using time to answer the question, "Do all animals move at the same speed?" After recording the speed of animals in a race, we measured speed in our own time challenges. The challenges were very creative!

In Maths, we've shown great perseverance to attempt some challenging maths where we bridge through 10 to add two numbers together. Children worked practically to partition whatever we were adding to make a group of 10, then add the remaining ones to find our answer.
