Songs for days of the week and months of the year

Homework

Homework this weekend is handwriting, reading and tricky words.


  • Practise writing capital and small letters on the lines, using the correct form. 
  • Practise saying tricky words (these need to be known by sight and cannot be sounded out using phonics)
  • Practise writing the tricky words - can you remember how to write them without looking?
  • Read your book every day


Have a great weekend!

Even and odd numbers

In maths we have been learning more about numbers.
Now we know that not all numbers are the same - some numbers are even, and some are odd. 





To help us discover the numbers between 1 and 10 are even and odd, we used cubes. 

We tried to share the cubes equally into two piles. We discovered that when there is one cube left over, the number is odd. When we could share the cubes equally, the number was even. 






We also looked at a 1-20 number track, circling the even numbers in red and the odd numbers in blue.

Halloween and half-term holidays


We had a fun-filled day of Halloween celebrations on our last day of school.
To get into the spooky Halloween spirit, we carved a pumpkin and made some decorations for our classroom.


We had to cut the top off the pumpkin and scoop out LOTS from the inside.

Then we carved a scary face!
