We have made the most of our wonderful KS1 outdoor space recently; painting water numbers with correct formation all over the fences and creating colourful chalk number-lines, collected natural materials from the garden and practised really careful counting. We have also really enjoyed investigating though lots of fun activities what a number looks and actually feels like and had fun playing games where our friends had to spot the missing numbers in a sequence. What a super start to becoming Number experts!

The children are all really enjoying our history topic ‘Tragic Titanic’ and have been so engaged in their learning about the events that happened on that fateful night over 100 years ago. We have looked closely at the areas of the ship and learnt about the different classes. We have even imagined being on the ship ourselves as a 3rd class child who sneaked into first class! We were using exclamation marks in our writing to show we were so surprised and excited when we saw the luxurious first class accommodation. “Wow look at that magnificent chandelier!”

Here are a few pictures of our work so far…
