Olympic Mascots

Today we explored a new ICT tool called Explain Me. Mrs McRandle took a photo of our olympic mascot then we wrote its name and explained all about it.

We are learning to speak confidently and clearly and this gave us the opportunity to practise these skills. 

Skip Counting

We are learning how to skip count in 2's. Today we used a variety of materials to practise our skip counting and patterning skills. All the children were skip counting and checking that their pattern was sequenced in groups of two.

Spinners

How to make a Spinner

One of our reading groups has been learning all about seeds. They have learned that seeds can travel by the wind and that the sycamore seed spins towards the ground.

One of our reading activities was to make a spinner that spins like a sycamore seed.

 We enjoyed this activity and decided to share it with the whole class.

 These are the instructions if you are keen to make another one at home.
