This week Giraffe Class have been learning:

English

• We wrote about the events of the Easter story and described how Christians celebrate Easter.
• We practised answering questions about different texts that we had read.
• We wrote Easter cards to our pen pals at Swing Gate School.

Maths

• We continued to look at time by solving problems involving time intervals.
• We looked at measure and answered questions using our knowledge of mass, capacity and length.
• We used different strategies to find the answers to addition, subtraction, multiplication and division problems.
• We drew pictures to find the answer to a variety of word problems.

Topic

• We worked with Mr Allett to solve a problem; how can seeds and beans grow without soil?
• We conducted our investigation by observing different beans growing and writing about what we had found out.
• We made and decorated Easter boxes and biscuits!
• We enjoyed sharing our Easter Bonnet creations with the rest of the school in our special Easter parade!

Well done on all your hard work Giraffes; have a wonderful restful holiday!

After the holidays we will be applying our knowledge of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division to a variety of problems.  We will also continue to look at plants and how they grow.
