Here we go again ..

We have super excelled ourselves with written methods of subtraction this week.  But the children are keen to carry on and I have decided that we shall have a couple of more days of subtraction next week before moving onto inverse operations. 

Having turned our teacher into a toad (they children were quite kind!), this week our instructional work in English shall include learning about adverbs and adverbial phrases, specific/technical words and adding diagrams - all to make the most perfect of instructions.

The children are working in house teams to create an information text on the Ancient Olympic Games.  To produce their work they are learning to use the 'Book Creator' app on the ipads.  We shall advance to adding images this week (once we have learnt to successfully save our books, erm .... it was tricky for the adults, let alone the children, but with great growth mindset we got though it ... oh and the children didn't do too bad either!).

So just a short one this week (mostly because I have had to watch Alliona and Jay's jive from last night's Strictly over and over all morning!  Wow, food for thought for Class 3's creative dance curriculum next half term?!).

A few snaps to finish, looking forward to see all the children tomorrow (especially the girls for our weekly goss on all things Strictly!).

  1. Could life be any sweeter?! A school blog about "Strictly Come Dancing". Team Squire love it and we have nearly converted Daddy Squire.

    I think Daddy Squire is getting fed up with throwing his girls around the living room to some sort of dance routine.

    Anyway, sounds like you have an exciting week planned and personally I feel you could spice it up even more but insisting Mr Wainwright shows you his jive skills. Just a thought.

  3. It sounds like you have an interesting week ahead of you class 3. I love the concentration on your faces whilst you are working on the iPads. I hope you have a great week class 3. We loved Jay's dance, we have watched it quite a few times too! ��
