This week in Falcon Class...

·        In Literacy this week we have been reading the story ‘Norman – the slug with a silly shell.’ We designed our very own ‘silly’ minibeast, and wrote some labels and captions to describe our creature.  We then used our designs to paint a picture of our brand new insects.

·        In Maths this week we have been focusing on measuring. We began by comparing the weight of different classroom objects, and then measured their weight using cubes. We also looked at measuring capacity, working out which containers could hold more water and sand.

·        In our Topic work this week we have begun our new science experiment. We watered some cress seeds using water, apple juice, milk and blackcurrant in order to find out which helped seeds grow the quickest. We also released some butterflies into the world, and had a go at sequencing the life cycle of a butterfly. We also talked about our world, and made posters to show how we could look after the environment.
