We did our English final writing (assessment) piece this week. We kept writing a diary as if we were Major Dizzy. I used the book, our own story plan and we rehearsed and rehearsed until we were confident to go and write it as independently as possible. They've done well and it's showing great progress. I am looking forward to them writing it in neat and enjoying the finished product on the Let Your Writing Shine Board.
Mr Brown came and watched our maths mastery lessons this week and was pleased to see how it is working well on their maths fluency. This week's focus has been seeing the pattern of adding / subtracting 2 to an odd and an even number, chanting: Add 2 to an even number and you get the next even number. (etc) The more they can see these patterns and learn them, the greater their solving mathematical problems will be. The other work in maths has been to see the pattern of adding a 10 eg
I know 3 + 4 = 7
so I know 13 + 4 = 17 (because I am just adding a ten)
Have you heard of my embarrassing/funny story? A Rabbit handed me a box of eggs telling me they were for me and how delicious they are and how their own chickens laid them etc. I was very touched with the kindess and enjoyed one of the said eggs for breakfast the next day. At home time I approached the Mum saying did you get my note of thanks about the eggs? She replied- you mean his show n tell? I ATE his show n tell! Will I ever live it down?? Parents, I did not do or go anywhere near show n tell today.
Here's to a fab last week of term, a much-needed unwind and enthusiastic return to the summer term (with your Easter bonnets).
