Maths - position, direction and orientation

We have been learning about quarter and half turns and have been using left and right to show the direction of the turn. We had a go at directing each other around a simple maze and then a more difficult maze. It was tricky to imagine that we were in the maze and to work out which direction we had to turn. Using the bears helped us to see this. Finally we had a go at drawing a maze for someone else to try.






Swimming Pictures

Room 6 enjoyed their first swimming lesson and have been writing a recount of it this week. Here are some pictures to show us listening, blowing bubbles, floating, kicking, gliding and swimming.

Swimming

I am proud of all the awesome swimmers in Room 6. Everyone took up the challenge and enjoyed the first lesson. Things to remember for next week; hair ties, googles and swimming caps!

Welcome back to Term 3

Term 3 is going to be a busy term for us. We have swimming lessons, cross country, a technology project and our own Mini Olympics happening.

Some children have done so much writing in their SSW (super silent writing) journal that they have finished it and need another. It would be great if you could provide a lined writing book such as the Warwick 1B4 or similar for your child to continue independent writing. Many children are also in need of another whiteboard marker. We use these regularly in a variety of activities including spelling, word work and maths. Your child will be able to tell you if they need a new marker.

Thank you for your continued support.

End of term 2

Well done Room 6 for another awesome term. We have made lots of progress towards becoming more independent learners. I have enjoyed seeing the improvement in basic facts knowledge and also the development in reading and writing skills. I hope you all have a wonderful break and look forward to seeing you back at school next term.
