What a surprising week!

This week we have been looking at the story of Handa's Surprise by Eileen Browne. We have most certainly felt like we have been in Africa with this gorgeous weather we have been having!

We used watercolour paint to create an African sunset then cut out silhouettes of trees and African animals to stick on our sunsets. How beautiful they all looked!

   

Using oil pastels, we chose a picture from the book to replicate. 

On Wednesday, we used the djembe to play the syllables in our names. The name with the most syllables in was 6!

As the weather has been do wonderful, we have taken the opportunity to investigate moving water from one water try to the other. We have some brilliant problem solvers in this class!

   

In maths, we have been looking at doubling numbers by using a 'magic mirror', using dice and looking at symmetry on ladybirds. 

This has been an amazing start back after the holidays! We hope you all have a lovely weekend and this weather continues!
