We are practising writing the caterpillar letters. We are thinking about the size of our letters as we write them. We have been practising writing 3 and 4 letter words using our best handwriting! Can you write a word list or write a phonic phrase e.g. a run in the sun, a bag of nuts, pots and pans or a red bed in the shed?

Writing

We are learning to write about our personal experiences. We will write sentences about what we saw at Urquhart Castle.

We have some writing targets that we have been working hard at. We are learning to:

  • put a capital letter at the start of a sentence
  • use a full stop at the end (to stop the words running away)
  • put a finger space between each word

Numeracy

We are developing the concept of subtraction and will begin by talking about what we know about subtraction/take away.

We are learning to solve subtraction problems within 5/10/20 by counting the objects or by counting on and back.

Rabbit Take Away – click easy to take away within 10

Fruit splat Subtraction – choose level 1 to work on take away within 10 and then relaxed mode

Monster Subtraction – if you are feeling more confident and are subtracting within 20

Music

We are learning to keep a steady beat while singing simple songs, distinguish faster and slower rhythms and understand speaking and singing voice.
