This week, we have been grouping objects and talking about similarities and differences in maths! We’ve used our natural objects to create groups, and used the language, ‘more than’ and ‘less than’ to compare the groups.

Comparing and ordering fractions in Crew MI
This morning we worked really hard and have been exploring our fraction wall. At first we thought that the bigger then number, the bigger the fraction but we soon learnt that was not the case. Actually, the bigger the denominator, the smaller the fraction.
The Lady of the lamp 🪔
In today’s experience lesson we read about how Florence Nightingale looked after the poorly soldiers when it got dark. We learnt she was also called the lady of the lamp as she carried a lamp around with her in the evening. In our experience lesson we all created our own lamp to be able to be just like Florence. It was a tricky cutting and sticking task but we all followed the instructions.
The Lady with the Lamp
Hide and seek experience lesson
The children played a game of hide and seek, whereby the children pretended to be Vlad the flea and hid in the hospital to make sure the adults (Florence Nightingale and the nurses) could not find them and kick them out of the new nice clean hospital. We then acted out looking after the poorly soldiers and gave them the medical care that they needed.
Lego therapy 👷
This morning in Crew Haddock, We used our Listening and communication skills to followed and give Lego instructions to build Lego models.
Searching for Vlad!
Today we played hide and seek with Vlad! To begin with the children estimated how big Vlad was and were shocked at just how small a flea actually was. They then spent time searching for Vlad and after a few clues Henry found him hiding under a table!
History Hackers
Today we have started a new book in reading called History Hackers Roman Rescue. First, we completed a jigsaw of the front cover and unpicked the title and author of the book. We then discussed the front cover and made some predictions about what the book could be about. We started to read chapter one whilst text marking the important information.
Vlad the flee, scurries for his life!
