During Understanding the World, the boys have enjoyed learning about Spring and all the seasonal changes that happen at this time of year. The boys drew lovely pictures and wrote captions of all the signs of Spring.

In Maths, we have continued to look at repeating patterns.

We enjoyed doing some Arts and Crafts.

After Easter our topic will be ‘growing’. For Show and Tell, please bring in a picture of you as a baby.

During Literacy, we read the Traditional Tale, ‘Jack and the Beanstalk’. We discussed the characters, setting, problems and solutions that happened in the story. The boys were very good at retelling the key events in the story and were able to write some sentences.

During Maths this week we have been looking at making patterns with shapes.

Please draw your own 3 part repeated shape pattern.

E.g. triangle, square, circle, triangle, square, circle

or red triangle, blue triangle, square, red triangle, blue triangle, square

This week the boys had a workshop from Zoolab. The boys were taught some interesting facts about various animals. The boys had the opportunity to stroke and hold an African snail, an Australian tree frog called Barbara and a snake to name a few. We have very brave boys in RY class!

The boys absolutely loved the Easter Egg Hunt.

Lovely parents from RY and RG taught the boys about Russian Easter traditions.

We have reached the end of Show and Tell this term.

We wish you a wonderful weekend.

During Literacy, we read the Traditional Tale, ‘The Three Billy Goats Gruff’. We discussed the characters, setting, problems and solutions that happened in the story. The boys were very good at retelling the key events in the story and wrote some sentences. Some of the boys also worked together to create their own Billy Goats Gruff story using the resources available.

We are so incredibly proud of the boys for performing their assembly so confidently. Well done, RY Class!

During Understanding the World, the boys experimented with objects to find out if the objects would sink or float. The boys made predictions and explained their predictions articulately.

A lovely parent from RG played the violin for RY. She is a true talent who has inspired the boys to play the violin.

For Show and Tell, please bring in a picture of your favourite weather. Can you research and share three facts about your chosen weather?

We hope you have a lovely weekend.
