Welcome back to the Summer term!
We started the week by planning
our leaflets for the Sainsbury Centre. The children looked at real-life
leaflets to decide what features they should include. The planned space for
headings, a map, pictures, prices, opening times, etc. Later in the week, we
wrote persuasive paragraphs about what you can do at the Sainsbury Centre, the
shop and the café. On Friday, we used our planning to make the leaflets. These
have been photocopied and sent to the Sainsbury Centre for them to, hopefully,
use.
In maths this week, we learnt
about how to read scales. We looked at real-life scales on car speedometers,
measuring jugs, rulers, weighing scales, etc. The children looked closely to
see what steps the scales were counting in (1s, 2s, 5s, 10s) and had to work
out the missing number. Later in the term, we will be applying this skill by
reading thermometers.
During the afternoons, we have
been designing, making and evaluating sock puppets. The children have had lots
of fun and we are very impressed with how much their real puppet looks like
their design!
