This week

This week we had personal development week. The title of the week was 'It's good to be me' and we looked at how we are all different and that our differences make us unique! We re-read the colour monster and made our own unique colour monsters showing how are emotions, feelings and self are unique and that that makes us special! Ask your child what makes them unique.

In maths we looked at numbers 9 and 10. First we practised making the numbers on 10 frames, then we looked more deeply into 10, learning about number bonds to 10. We filled out our number bonds in 10 frames and part part whole models. Later in the week we saw how numbers 1 - 10 are represented, first with numicon and then with dominoes. We ordered our 1-10 numicon and dominoes on a number line. Ask your child what a number bond to 10 is (they should know 5+5=10 and 6+4=10). Ask them to show you on their fingers and see if they can make any other number bonds. 

We danced with Miss T, we snag with Miss Stevens. Green room practised singing the chocolate hymn they wrote with Mr. Jones (already double platinum in Belize) which blue room will learn soon, we started our new RWI groups which will become longer next week and we had a lot of FUN!
