A recap of nouns in MI

Super impressed with our nouns recap today! We played lots of short games to demonstrate our understanding of common, proper, collective and partitive nouns. We showed some great learning really showcasing what we have remembered over the last couple of weeks! I look forward to seeing how well you do tomorrow in your touch down! Great work MI 🙂

Partitive Nouns

Today, we continued learning about nouns. So far we’ve learned about common nouns, proper nouns and collective nouns. It was the turn of partitive nouns which shows how much is a noun. For example: a spoonful of sugar, a cup of tea, a slice of cake

Children worked in pairs to match the partitive noun with the correct noun. Children were encouraged to read them out loud to check sense.

Rainbow fish

Last week we looked at how to be kind, we did this through the rainbow fish book. We looked at how rainbow fish wasn’t kind to begin with but then ended up being kind in the end and this made him feel happy. We created our own kindness fish tank to remind us to always be kind. We looked at ordering the story and verbally answering questions about what we had read.

Grammar

This week in Crew Marsh we have gone right back to basics and unpicked what a letter, word and sentence is. The children were fab at comparing these and understanding how letters make words and words make sentences.

Continuing our story

Yesterday, we put our pirate hats back on to explore the next part of our story – Pirates Love Underpants! We used our climbing, crawling and swinging skills to explore the island before crossing a bridge that was really high up with snappy crocodiles underneath! We were very brave! Afterwards, we talked about how we had moved across the bridge using our action lens and verbs, ready to write the next part of our story.
