Thank you to everyone that donated money for Comic Relief during our non-uniform day on Friday! 
We hope to have raised lots for this great charity and had lots of fun dressing up in red or just enjoying wearing our own clothes for the day.


This week we have really been making sure that we can count in 2s, 5s and 10s more confidently in Maths.

Here is a fantastic example of one of the Year 1s showing they can count in 5s using Numicon!


We had had a few people turn 6 in the last couple of weeks so on Friday we had a special challenge - showing '6' in as many ways as we could! 
We worked in pairs and every time someone did some 'clever thinking' or 'thought outside the box' they rang the special bell to show the class that some great thinking was happening in their team - the winning team won 5 house points each and a special shiny sticker!
I was absolutely wowed by the determination everyone showed to make sure their work was fantastic enough to ring the bell!

We used resources....

....wrote calculations (number sentences)....

... and drew things to show different representations of the number 6!

The winning pair were Lily and Eleanor who really thought hard about all the different ways they could show me 6 - AMAZING! 






This week we have also enjoyed planning journeys and routes around the world, finding out facts about lions, having a go at some coding on the computers and learning to play Boggle!


Home Learning 
Due Thursday 21st March

Your home learning is to have another go at Boggle using the letters in the grid below - see how many words you an create!
