"We have been learning about animals that come out at night." - CarolineScience
"They are called nocturnal animals." - Kayden
"I made a book about foxes. They have good hearing so they can hear their prey when hunting" - Alice
"Owls eat insects, mice and shrews." - Mikquell
Mathematics
This week in maths we have been looking at dividing by grouping and using our times table facts.
"50 ÷ 10 = 5" - Daniel
"10 ÷ 2 = 5" - Drew
"15 ÷ 3 = 5" - Darcy
The children love playing hit the button on ICT games, which you can find the link to on our maths page. It is really good for practicing times tables.
Star of the week this week is Reegan and our merit certificate winners are Alice and Mikquell. Esther was awarded sports person of the week.
New homework grids have been stuck in homework books this week. The children still need to do one homework web activity alongside a maths question that is stuck in. We have also set new spellings.
Have a lovely weekend,
Miss Ellison and Rainbow Class :)
