Week 3-maths, RE, cricket and English.

In maths we are revisiting the 4 rules of number and designing our own "How Do You...?" posters. These are to be displayed on our learning wall and used to support learning . The maths talk and language that this is generating is excellent. It has also thrown up some methods that children have forgotten and we have therefore revisited these - a valuable revision exercise.
First we brainstormed and planned on white boards,

sharing and discussing our ideas,

coming up with "Top Tips"s
thinking of visual images to support learning,

and finally compiling our posters.
How do you add, subtract, multiply and divide?
 
In RE we have continued exploring the Bible.Andrew brought in a selection of different types for us. These included a toddlers version, a lift the flap one, a study version and
many more. The class enjoyed looking at these, noting the many different styles.
Wow-so many different Bibles,

a Bible to suit everyone,

In English we are using the film One Man Band . It has no dialogue so we are using various ways to generate our own ideas for dialogue. Hot Seating as the 3 main characters is a good one to start with.
Questions to the Brass Player.
What is your name? Where are you?How long have you been playing the trumpet?What is your favourite instrument?

To the little girl-Do you come here often? How old are you? When did you learn to play the violin?

To the violin player.
Did you make your violin?
Lots of question and answers using inference and deduction.
 
Cricket in the sunshime. At last we got onto the field to play cricket. First we had to practise our skills.
Long barrier...

bowling,
 
 
 
and wicket keeping.
