Year 1
This week we have been learning about fractions. We started the week finding parts of a whole practically using a range of resources. Here is a child in 1A piecing together parts of a pizza to make a whole. 

Here is an example of how we used the numicon to find equal pieces of a whole. This child was able to find 1/3 of 6.

 This child has split 20 into 4 groups, finding out that 1/4 of 20 =5.

In English we have been looking at traditional tales. 

1M have been retelling the story of The Frog Prince by sequencing the story into the opening, build up, problem, resolution and ending. In this video children in 1M act out the opening scene.

We loved the use of actions, expression and clear voices.

Year 2

2J have been learning about a variety of important concepts in science this week. The children worked together in small groups to explore the life cycles of humans and other animals. Also, they discussed what humans, plants and animals need to do to grow and stay healthy. As a class we drew a number of conclusions about the basic needs of living things.
