On Tuesday we had a special challenge – looking after a new Jelly Baby friend for the whole day!

We gave them names and wrote some facts about them. 

We talked lots about how best to take care of them and how to be a kind friend. 

We also created a healthy packed lunch for them and designed and made them a home to live in too!

In Maths this week we have been comparing numbers using words like 'greatest' and 'smallest' and have been learning about some new symbols we can use to help us do this 

<     >     and     = 

These are called 'inequality symbols' - but we also know this as 'Charlie Croc': the greedy crocodile that always wants to eat the biggest number!

 

Here is some of our work showing that we can use Charlie Croc (inequality symbols) to compare numbers - 

  

Over half term please take some time to learn your spelling words that have been given this term - these have been stuck into reading diaries each week and are also listed below.

You should be able to read and spell these confidently now.

Please also make sure to read your reading books to an adult - perhaps you could have a go at retelling the story to someone to see how much you can remember!

Have a lovely week - see you on Monday 29th October.
