Where are you?

This week in Maths we have been learning to use positional language. We read the story of 'The Three Billy Goats Gruff' and we talked about where we could see the goats and the Troll. We used language such as next to, beside, between, to describe their position.
We all used the blocks to build bridges. There was some amazing 'Characteristics of Effective Learning' seen while they were building such as problem solving, concentrating and testing their bridges.
It was Philosophy day on Thursday and we had a philosophy session. We posed a question and the children had to think and discuss the answer. One of the questions was 'Should the big goat have pushed the Troll into the water?'
On Friday it was Children in Need and we all dressed up in spots and stripes. We decorated a big Pudsy Bear with our own patterns.
Our Home Learning this week is to talk about the different ways that we celebrate and record it. Perhaps you could draw a picture and write about it?
