This week, the children in Reception have been busy learning through a range of exciting activities. They have been exploring colour mixing, discovering what happens when different colours are mixed together and enjoying creating new colours. They have also been learning all about Little Red Riding Hood. The children listened to the story, talked about the characters, drew them and practised writing their initial sounds. They have also been creating their own shape monsters while learning about different 2D shapes and their properties, including their sides and corners.

In Nursery, we have been making comparisons in Maths. We had a go at comparing collections of objects, focusing on identifying which group had more and which had fewer. We then explored sorting objects by colour and compared the groups to see which colour had more.

This week, Year 4 have been learning to round numbers to the nearest 10, 100 and 1,000.

We have been using the rule: 5 or more, round up; 4 or less, round down. ⬆️⬇️

We have been practising looking at the digit to the right of the place value we are rounding to and deciding whether to round up or down.

The children have worked really hard and are becoming confident with their rounding! 🌟

This week, we continued our animation journey by creating our very own stop motion puppets! 🎬✨ We also planned our storyboards, thinking carefully about the characters, scenes and actions that will bring our ideas to life.

Next week, we’ll put all our planning into action and create our very own stop motion animations. We can’t wait to see the stories unfold! 🎥👏
