English

We read the story 'The Robin Who Stole Christmas'. We have absolutely loved this story up to now!

We looked at the front cover and wrote predictions, we made a warning poster about the robin and wrote a description of Santa HQ.

Phonics

Some of us have been learning the ee and ea sounds and the igh and ie sounds.

Some of us have been learning the alternative pronunications. We have learnt ea in bread and the short er sound in bigger.

Maths

We completed some of our learning checks for previously taught topics. We used lots of equipment to help work out the answers.

R.E.

We continued to read about the birth of Jesus. We read about the shepherds and kings arriving at the stable, just like in our Nativity! We then wrote the story in our books.

Art

We painted the background of our Christmas card. We used the printing technique with lots of different objects from around the classroom.

We also printed with different fruit and vegetables.

D.T.

We made the mechanism for our Christmas card. We could choose between a slider or a lever card.
