Week 5
Christmas visitor
Reading
Maths
In Maths this week we have focused on the names and properties of 3D shapes. The children tried really hard to make their own 3D shapes which helped us to think about their different properties (vertices, edges, faces and so on.)
Literacy
Our focus in Literacy this week has been a twist on fairytales. We have expanded our horizon and started to think about comparing Jack and the Beanstalk and Jack and the Baked Beanstalk. As a result of this we have been trying to focus on our explanation writing skills and using subordinating conjunctions (because, as, when, so if) to explain which story we prefer and why.
