Children In Need 

Today our sports ambassadors led the Work It Out with Joe Wicks session as part of Children In need. We all joined Joe live online and the sports ambassadors gave us a warm up, encouraged and guided us through the workout.



Terrific Tablets

 

Bears have been exploring tablets and ipads. We talked about how we use tablets or smartphones at home. Looked at the tablet's features, including the power button, camera and the apps available for the us to use. We then used our tablets to take photos, play games and read online. We also played an online jigsaw game. We then talked about if we had to make a game online, what would be in the game. We had many ideas from a racing car game to a pony running and you have to ride it!




Keeping Safe Online

 

Bears have been learning about how to keep safe online. We shared the story 

Chicken Clicking by Jeanne Willis. 

The story explored the theme of online safety and Bears talked about how and  when we use online technology. The little chicken went online, without asking an adult, on sites he shouldn’t have and ordered lots of things. He started to chat to someone online who wanted to play, but when he went to meet them, it was not someone nice but a cunning fox!                  We talked about never going online and meeting someone you don’t know and how it was essential to tell an adult if we accidentally see something online that upsets, scared or worries us.

 

Maths – 2D Shapes 

Bears have been recapping on 3D shapes and using them to print 2D shapes. They considered the different 2D shapes on the faces of 3D objects. They could see that different 3D shapes can still make the same 2D print.

 Our Week In maths, we have been exploring 3D shapes, which shapes roll and which shapes stack.  We discovered that shapes need be curved to roll and have a flat face to stack. The drum was a cylinder and could roll. In literacy we have started reading 'Look Up', a story all about a young girl who dreams of becoming an astronaut!  We read how Rocket was inspired by Mae Jemison, the first African -American woman in space. Bears didn't think it was fair that African-American people were stopped from following their dreams. We spotted our phonics sounds through our telescope. We then shared, what we dreamed of doing in the future, from becoming an artist to being an ice cream seller. We also counted down as we watched the astronauts take off in the space shuttle and wondered what it would be like to be in space. We then practiced our 'mark making', drawing our space rockets with chalks and pretending to be rockets flying into space.  In our topic Marvellous Machines, w...

Odds and evens investigation

Image
 Today, we've been investigating which numbers are odd and which are even. The children went into the mud kitchen area and counted out flowers, sticks, bugs etc. then split each number of objects into 2 groups to see if they could be shared equally. They then recorded their findings and looked for patterns.  Sharing 3 flowers into 2 groups Looking for bugs to share. Checking to see if one flower can be shared into 2 groups. Recording their findings. Sharing pebbles into 2 baskets.

Good morning!

Good morning Bears. I hope you’ve all had a lovely weekend. Just wanted to say how much I’m looking forward to seeing what you’ve been doing. Don’t forget to share your learning with us on here and add observations to Tapestry. Let me know if there’s anything I can help with by emailing me. Don’t forget to get out in the garden and share what learning you’ve been doing there too. I’m going to share some links to some free audio books on the home learning document for you to enjoy also. Happy home schooling! Miss Furness
