This week Kangaroo Class have been learning:

English

• We focused on the traditional tale of ‘Jack and the Beanstalk’
• We sequenced the events of the story and described the beginning, middle and end.
• We drew story maps to show what happened in the story.
• We wrote sentences to describe why we would like to be Jack or the giant.

Maths

• We started to look at number and subitising.
• We looked at different dice patterns and how we knew what each represented.
• We described the similarities and differences between different amounts of objects.
• We drew different ways to make a variety of numbers.
• We used tens frames to show each number.

Topic

• We thoroughly enjoyed a trip to our school allotment on Wednesday, where we planted bulbs and looked at the progress of the planting we had carried out last year.
• We practised our throwing and catching skills.
• We created art based around Jack and the Beanstalk using photos of ourselves as inspiration!
• We labelled the different parts of a plant.

What a very busy week of learning; well done Kangaroos!
