This Week
We started our new topic - under the sea - we learnt about different types of sea creatures and looked in non-fiction books to find out lots of facts about them. We shared the story 'Commotion in the Ocean' and spotted the rhyming words and also some of our 'tricky' red words during guided reading.

In Maths, we have been measuring using standard and non-standard units 
In Literacy we have been creating Sea Creature descriptions and rhyming word pairs  

Next Week 
Next week we will be continuing our Under the Sea topic and looking at the book 'The Rainbow Fish.' We will be talking about what makes us unique and we will also be looking at rainbows and colours. In art we will be colour mixing and identifying primary and secondary colours 

Maths Focus - Counting and number bonds 
Literacy Focus - Using adjectives to write a descriptive sentence
