Good afternoon,

Parent consultation:

I have sent the children home with the parent consultation appointment times. Should you not receive this or be unable to make your appointment then please email me as soon as possible. (ndavis@littleheath.herts.sch.uk)

This week:

Maths – we were looking at the properties of 3D shapes; comparing, ordering and understanding place value of 2- and 3-digit numbers; subtracting from 2-digit numbers.

English – we have been looking at writing instructions. We have been identifying instruction texts, identifying imperial verbs and looking at time conjunctions within instructions.

Science – we were looking at animals and their diets. This included sorting animals into categories of carnivore, herbivore and omnivores into a Venn diagram. 

Next week

Maths - Comparing, ordering and understanding place value of 2- and 3-digit numbers; subtracting from 2-digit numbers; using prediction to estimate calculations

English – We will be continuing our instruction writing. Within this week the children will be designing, making and writing instructions for making cocktails.

Celebrating differences - Next week in school we are holding a themed week around celebrating differences. Through this we hope to raise the awareness, tolerance and acceptance levels of the children, of the many differences that exist between people in different ways eg. skin colour, religion, sexual orientation.

We will be covering all of these topics through a variety of activities and stories involving all of the children in the creation of a ‘moving art’ piece to represent celebrating differences. This will be similar to what we did during last year’s ‘Anti-Bullying Week’ and will be uploaded onto the website so you can all see it.
