Look at our classroom....

Our current topic question is 'What's so wild about wildlife?'

We have been reading a story called 'The bee who spoke'. Ask Tigers about our story!

 

In Maths we have been very busy this term learning lots about division, multiplication and statistics! We have been reading graphs and making our own!

 

In Topic and Science our focus has been on wildlife, plants and habitats! We know so much about what plants need to grow as we have even grown our own! 

Practice your number bonds and save the whale!

We have been looking at the book 'Flotsam' by David Wiesner, and been writing descriptively using adjectives.

What adjectives could you use to describe these wonderful pictures?

 

 

Our topic question this term is...

 

'Can we welcome the World to Whitton?'

 

Here are some pictures of our classroom:

We have been reading stories about Paddington Bear! We have looked at his journey from 'deepest darkest Peru' and we are learning about South America. We are building up to making a guide to Ipswich for refugee families living in Ipswich. 

Welcome to Tigers!

Our teacher Miss Storey and our TA Mrs Linstead are always here to support our learning.

This term our essential question is:

 

Is fire a friend or enemy? 

 

We are really looking forward to finding out about fire today and in the past.

We will learn about how fire was involved in the Great Fire of London and Guy Fawkes. As well as how we can keep ourselves safe from fire, we will also find out how fire helps us in our homes today.

READING IS IMPORTANT!

We encourage children to read as much as possible at school, but they should be reading at least 20 minutes a day with someone at home too.

 

Let your child re-read books. Reading the same words over and over again helps to build fluency.

 

If your child gets stuck on a word, encourage him/her to sound it out. If it is really too tricky, or can’t be sounded out, just supply the word and carry on reading.

 

Take turns reading. By listening to your fluent reading, your child will hear what good readers sound like. After you’ve read a short passage, ask your child to read the same passage. This will give him/her the chance to practice reading with expression.

 

Enjoy this special time together. By doing so, you will encourage a lifelong love of reading.
