Happy Friday everyone!

Thank you to all the parents who attended the maths meeting on Tuesday evening, it really was very informative and good fun.

Due to a timetable reshuffle the children’s spellings and timetable test will be on Thursday afternoons from now on.

This week
Maths – This week in maths we have measured a length and use a ruler to estimate, measure and draw to the nearest centimetre. We explored capacity to know 1 litre = 1000 ml, we also estimated and measured capacity in millilitres. We also placed 2- and 3-digit numbers on a number line; round 3-digit numbers to nearest 100.

English - During our recount topic we have be looking at what makes a report. This week we focused on opening paragraphs, fact and opinion, headlines and the appearance of the front page of a newspaper.

Science- This week we were identifying magnetic and non-magnetic materials within the classroom. We then recorded our experiment in a table and were surprised by some of our results.

Next Week

Maths - Place 2- and 3-digit numbers on a number line; round 3-digit numbers to nearest 100; use counting up to do mental subtractions with answers between 10 and 20, 10 and 30, and either side of 100.

Science – Magnets. Testing how strong magnets are.
