As part of our work on 'materials' in science, this week we watched a video of the story of the Three Little Pigs. 

We talked about why bricks were the best choice for a house (they are hard, strong, heavy etc) and why straw and sticks were not such good choices (fragile - can easily be broken or bent, not waterproof, could blow away etc). 

Then we had a challenge to try to build the best house possible from each of the materials!

In Maths we have moved on to writing addition and subtraction (+ and - ) number sentences, using the part whole model to help us.

In Year 2 we have been checking Mrs Flynn's calculations and proving whether or not she is right or wrong using drawings of cubes and counters to show our work. 
This has been really tricky but everyone has really persevered this week, well done!






We had some lovely home learning handed in over the past few days following last weekends Remembrance Sunday celebrations - these were some of the original and creative pieces of artwork that some children took such time and care over! 

Georgie, Lydia and Lilly all earned 'Super Star' certificates for their fantastic home learning this week.
