We have had a busy week back at school.

In Art, pupils learnt about lines and sketches. The pupils had opportunities to use different thickness pencils and create sketches using different lines. Pupils learnt the importance of lines and how they create sketches as well as how these can be created in a range of materials.

In Maths, we have started our unit of learning on place value, recognising the value of digits in numbers and using a place value chart alongside place counters and Base 10.

In English, we have started our unit of writing on 'The True Story of the Three Little Pigs'. In our first lesson, the pupils had to work together in a group to come up with questions to ask the wolf. They wanted to know what had happened, how come the houses had fallen down. The wolf responded with it was an accident, and he had a terrible, powerful sneeze. As we continued with the learning, pupils have created some wonderful sentences where they have used feelings, complex sentences, adjectives, time/place adverbials and have had to remember basic punctuation (capital letters and full stops).

In History, we have started our unit of work on the Stone Age to Iron Age, where we looked at how people lived in Britain during the Palaeolithic and Mesolithic ages. Pupils looked at what they ate in these times, the resources they had, and the discoveries made by archeologists.
