World Book Day 2022
We had a fantastic day today, reading books, talking about books and dressing up as our favourite characters. The World Book Day song was a hit too.
We love reading and really believe books are a truly portable magic.
PE : sequences and balancing using large apparatus
Year 2 maths : multiplication and division
The year 2s have begun to learn about multiplication and division and are loving it! We use real objects and pictures, linking this to calculations. Talk about what each number represents in a calculation.
Help at home by encouraging your child to play on Times Tables Rockstars and watch BBC Supermovers videos.
Year 1 maths : using part whole models
The year 1s have been telling subtraction stories in maths.
We have also used part whole models to help us.

Today is Safer Internet Day. We have talked about how we ‘go online’ and what is fun and what we like about it. We then talked about what can go wrong and what we can do about it.
Living and learning : assessing risk
This week, we have been discussing risks in our living and learning lessons. We put different activities on a ‘risk ladder’, deciding whether it was high or low risk. We decided that it depends on other factors too – and what you do to minimise risk. For example, climbing the stairs would become higher risk if you ran or went up carrying lots of toys. Help at home : talk to your child about where they put the activities on the risk ladder.
