Hello all,

Finally the sun has arrived and it has definitely made us all feel a lot better. This week we have been planting outside and the children are going to nurture the plants over the next few weeks and observe their growth. We have been learning about the rainforest and the children have learnt many interesting facts. I am sure if you ask them they will be able to tell you about how people live in the rainforest.

The children have been singing lots of counting songs and one of their favourites is Alice the camel. This reminded us of many videos we made during lock down. We shared them with the children who were very entertained. We have uploaded a couple for you to enjoy. 

In maths this week, we focused on adding two single digit quantities and different ways of making 5.

It would be great, if the children consolidate the number bonds at home by making 5 in different ways. They can use different objects as counters e.g. bricks , stones, pasta pieces, etc.

1 and 4 makes 5

2 plus 3 equals 5, etc.

Thank you for your support!

Enjoy the sunshine!

Mrs Sheehan
