Topic – materials

This week, we have been looking at different materials and their properties. Initially we looked at fire and ice.  We brainstormed the differences between these two materials.  The children came up with a  lot of interesting facts.  This afternoon, we are going to look at more different materials such as wood, glass,  fabric,  plastic and stone. The children are looking forward to this lesson.

numeracy and literacy this week

In numeracy, we  have been learning about data handling.  The children have been making tally charts and using the in formation to make bar charts.  We have also looked at Venn diagrams. We used hoops on the carpet for the practical part of the Venn diagram lesson, the children thoroughly enjoyed this activity.

In literacy, we have been learning about fiction and non-fiction texts.  We looked at the  differences and similarities of these two types of texts.  The children looked at a wide range of books from the library and  worked in small groups to identify the main features of these two types of texts.
