Let it snow…

We’ve had a fun week in Reception learning about Weather.

During Literacy and Understanding the World, we listened to the story ‘Noah’s Ark’. The boys loved watching the animals enter the ark and being safe from the flood. Their wonderful writing about Noah’s Ark will be displayed in class.

The boys were fascinated learning about rain and rainbows and how they are formed. They enjoyed painting their own rainbows. We also have a class ‘puddle’, which we are going to watch to see if it evaporates!

In Maths we have been learning about subtraction:

For the Maths homework activity, could you please use dice to subtract numbers. Throw two dice, start with the biggest numbers and subtract the smaller number. To extend this beyond 6, use one of your laminated number cards, roll the die and subtract using your fingers.

Here we are exploring the snow and going on a winter trail:

 

 

The starboys for next week are as follows:

Monday: Kailen

Tuesday:Kiaan

Wednesday: Nathaniel

Thursday: Noah

Friday: Reiss

The weekly challenge for next week is: Line up smartly and quietly with your hands by your side.

Have a super weekend!

Mrs Starkey and Miss Barr

  1. Harvey enjoyed this, we subtracted some smaller numbers and then started with larger ones. We love the action of the bigger number going into his head!!

  2. We have various dice that have different numbers on sides at home, so Drake has been enjoying subtracting larger numbers using the laminated number sheet and writing the calculations down.
