An extremely busy first week back!
Our new topic this half term is 'Step Back in Time'. This week we have been learning a little about Queen Victoria. This is in preparation for our work on how Yeadon has changed since Victorian Times.
In maths we have started our unit of work on Fractions. This week the children have been finding a half of objects. shapes and numbers. I have been very impressed with the children's understanding and their ability to see the links with dividing by 2.
In English we have been using the story of 'The Three Little Pigs' to inspire our writing. The children have been sequencing and orally retelling the story. We have also used drama to think about how the pigs felt at different points in the story. Next week we will be writing letters to Mummy Pig from the Pigs.
Enjoy your weekend!

Well what a whirlwind of a half-term! I can't believe we are already at the end and are half way through the school year.
The highlight of the week has been our writing linked to Supertato. The children have created their own Fruit or Vegetable Superhero and used this character in their own Supertato Adventure. These adventures have been made into comic strips.
Wishing you all a Happy Half-Term. Hopefully we will return to some warmer Spring Time weather.

The week started with a 'Mind Mate' assembly which focused on the theme of resilience. The children then had a Workshop in the classroom. The theme of resilience is such an important one and we talk about this when referring to 'What a Rufford Park Learner Looks Like'.The children have all shown great resilience all week in everything that they have done!
In English we have started a new story to inspire our writing. The children have been writing descriptions of 'Supertato' the main character from the Supertato Adventures.
In maths we have had a consolidation week. We have been recapping on addition and subtraction. The children have really impressed me with their skills especially when using exchanging for subtractions that cross the tens.
Resilience has really been shown in PE this week. We have continued with our Skipping Unit both in Sam's and our teacher lead PE sessions. The children's skills have really improved but most importantly they are continuing to 'have a go' even when they are finding it tricky.
We have also welcomed Miss Smith to our class this week. She will be with us until after the Easter Holidays as part of her Teacher Training.
A slightly shorter week for the children next week due to our Training Day on Friday. Also , unbelievably, the last week before the February Half Term Holiday.
Happy Weekend!
