What a fantastic first full week back we had in Clover class!
We welcomed in the new year with smiles, examples of wonderful learning behaviour and even four new classmates.
We began our English for the year, during which we will be writing Greek myths. Our focus is on the labours of Heracles (Hercules if you're a Roman!). We looked at an example story, unpicking key grammar features such as; the past tense, fronted adverbials and expanded noun phrases.
In Maths, our focus is place value. We were amazing at rounding to the nearest 10s and 100s as well as looking at place value in 4-digit numbers. We have also been practising our subitising skills using: https://mathsbot.com/tools/subitising why not play at home!
Our work on Ancient Greece has started properly, looking at where and when the Anicent Greek civilisation existed. In Music, we started our body percussion work (BOOM, SNAP, CLAP!).
Thank you to all children and adults for an incredible, exciting start to the year.
