Our learning this week…
English
On Monday, we will read the story ‘Lima’s Red Hot Chilli’ by David Mills, talk about characters, look at noun phrases, sentence structure, adjectives-describing words and sequencing the story. On Tuesday we will be planning a similar story by changing title, character’s name, problem, ending…..and so one.  Wednesday morning, we will be planning our own stories and on Thursday, we will be writing our own stories independently. By Friday, we will be editing our own stories.

Maths
This week we will be revisiting addition and subtraction.

History
Children will continue to develop their understanding of the past. Let them talk to you or grandparents or older family members of how life was when they were young and begin to think about what life is for them especially relating to toys and games they play. ( For e.g doll house / marbles in the olden days and computer games in the modern times).

ICT
We are learning to create and debug programs. Please support your child to develop their skills by using ‘Lightbot’.

Children will continue to learn about the British nature artist Andy Goldsworthy and create their own nature sculptures. Please bring twigs , leaves, flowers, pebbles by Wednesday. Thanks.

P.E
Children will continue developing their skills to skip and using a skipping rope with increasing control. This week, the children will learn to develop their team spirit and positive attitude towards winning gracefully as well as accepting defeat as a way to improve their skills.

PSHE
Our topic is called ‘Relationships’. Children will be talking about feelings – how to deal with it.

Music

*If your child attends an Afterschool sports club and takes their P.E kit home, kindly return the P.E kit the next day. A lot of the children have been upset and disappointed as they have missed their P.E sessions as a result of not having kits.
