Friday 2nd May

This week we have recapped adding 2-digit number by exchanging; we practised using Base Ten as a practical tool during our maths lessons. In English lessons, we have continued to look at the story Jim and the Beanstalk including sequencing the story. We have begun learning about an artist, Esther Mahlangu who paints bright bold shapes and symmetrical patterns. In our lesson we learnt to mix primary colours to make secondary colours and how to make them darker and lighter. On Wednesday we loved tinkering on Scratch Jr to explore creating algorithms to make our character move. The highlight of the week was burning our model houses to see just how quickly the fire spread in 1666 during the Great Fire of London.
