This week in Seahorses we have carried on with our learning about Australia and reception spent some of their topic time decorating Australian animals having looked at Aboriginal art. They also looked at Edward the Emu in Drawing club. They thought about the other animals Edward could go and see as well as thinking about  what Edward and Edwina the emus could go and do. In maths they have been busy comparing the height and lengths of different objects and on Thursday started looking at the days of the week. We read Jasper’s Beanstalk and managed to sequence the pictures to match the story.

Meanwhile in Year 1 and Year 2 we have been busy finishing ‘At the Beach’ by writing our own postcards about a trip we have been on. To help us prepare for this we practised writing lots of different things during our sentence stacking lessons during the week. On Thursday we had some great similes including ‘as black as a shadow’ and ‘as long as a boat’. In maths, we have been using our knowledge of coins and the 2, 5 and 10 times tables to count different values of coins.

Next week, year 2 are going to Cromer Academy for Tri-golf on Tuesday and we are looking forward to seeing what they can teach us when they come back.
