Our topic this term is 'A time to rhyme'. To begin, we have been learning the nursery rhyme Miss Polly had a dolly. The children have enjoyed reciting the rhyme and sequencing the pictures. In class our play activities have been based around the nursery rhyme to extend our learning and knowledge. The children have a fantastic understanding of how to look after children who are feeling unwell, they have been sharing their own experiences of when they've felt sick and have used this to play doctors and nurses in our role-play area. Our school nurse paid our class a visit to explain how hospitals and doctors can help us when we are sick. The children brought a doll or teddy to school to care for it, they applied bandages and plasters and some 'doctors' were on hand to make important notes and administer medicine if needed. What a busy time we've had!

Year 3 have been studying the work of Picasso on a Tuesday afternoon with Mrs Kane. They have recreated a piece of Picasso's work using oil pastels. Their next challenge is to create a self-portrait in the style of Picasso, choosing shapes and colours similar to those in his works. The children were so proud of their creations and are so keen to experiment with different media as the term progresses.

We are very fortunate to have the library van visit our school every two weeks. Children from Year 2-4 can borrow a book to read, what a special treat this is to go onto the van and choose a book. Here is a picture of our Year 2 children borrowing their first book from Denis.

This week we have been working hard at partitioning number into manageable chunks. 

We were using Numeracy resources to help with this task. 

Have a look at how hard we were working.
