In English and guided reading, we have continued to read ‘The Promise’ by Nicola Davies. We have thought carefully about how the mood of the girl is changing and how we can use evidence in the text to support our ideas. We have been learning about helping verbs and how these can be diagrammed along with the subject and the main verb. Here is an example –
In Maths we have been learning how to represent numbers in different ways. We have been using place value counters to show that a number such as 4537 can be represented as 4000 + 500 + 30 + 7 or 4000 + 500 + 20 + 17.
In Computing we have been using Scratch to start creating animated stories based around The Promise. We will continue to work on these over the next few weeks.
Thank you to everyone who came to the curriculum talk on Wednesday. All parents should have now received a class newsletter.
Please look out for homework books that are coming home today. Copies of the takeaway and maths grids are also on our class page of the website. Should anyone wish to complete home learning on PowerPoint (where appropriate to the task) please can work be emailed to ktwo1968@crowmarsh-gifford.oxon.sch.uk
