PE will be on a Monday and Wednesday this term. Please ensure that children have a full PE kit in school. They will need suitable footwear for outdoor sessions.
Numeracy
Over the next two weeks we will be looking at how to calculate area and perimeter. We will ensure the children know how to find the perimeter of regular shapes by adding all the sides together before looking at how to calculate the perimeter of compound shapes (two or more quadrilaterals together).
We will check that the children know how to find the area by counting whole and partial squares before going on to learning out how to calculate area using the formula a=l x w. Once we are confident in this, we will look at how we can calculate the area of compound shapes (two or more quadrilaterals together) and triangles.
We will also be learning how to draw shapes which have a specific premier or area.
Literacy
Week Beginning 20th February 2012
This week, to link in with our Science Week activities through 'Survivor', we will be creating different texts including:
- diary entries whilst stranded on a deserted island
- instructions on how to build a shelter
- information text (a guide to the island)
Week Beginning 27th February 2012
We will be looking at the features of non-chronological reports and working to produce our own by the end of the week.
Book Week was again a great success this year, starting with Bedtime Story on Monday, the book fair all week, the class - swap story on Thursday, and of course, book character day on Friday! Thank you to all of you for the effort you put into your costumes, we were really impressed!
