Hello REB Families, welcome to our week 2 Blog.

This week in English we:

-learnt the heart words day, play and from and constructed sentence using them

-engaged in word investigations with the focus on diagraphs ‘oi’ and ‘oy’

-used sound boards to build CVC words

-read the poem ‘The Coin’ in shared reading

-looked at ways to enhance and edit to our books and gave this a go in bookmaking

 

 

 

In Maths we focused on measuring and comparing the height of objects. This involved:

-comparing produce in the vegetable garden

-working in partners to build the tallest tower

-group investigations and sorting

 

In Science we discovered that we are scientist when we observe weather. We created our own weather journals which will be produced throughout the term.

 

 

In Religion we discussed how prayer can be when we want to share gratitude for something in our life. We prayed in gratitude for our natural world and used this as our inspiration for our paintings.

Dear God,   

  

Thank you for the trees, the flowers, and the skies so blue.   

Thank you for the animals, and the rivers that flow too.   

Help us to care for nature, to keep it clean and bright,   

So all your gifts can grow and shine, and fill our hearts with light.   

  

Amen.

 

 

In Health we re-visited the meaning of ‘trust’ and discussed the importance of having people in our life who we trust. We then drew our own trust networks.
