Back to school!

Welcome back everyone! We've had a fantastic first week back after and nice relaxing half term. Look at what we've been up to! 
Writing 
We have been reading the story The Tiger Who Came to Tea. Its a fantastic book that we're al really familiar with from Bear cubs. We've been using the story this week to learn a new spelling rule, using the suffix -s. Its been a tricky rule to learn but we're starting to understand. 

Maths 
We have been learning about using language to compare height, length, weight and capacity. Everyone worked really hard and was able to learn to so many new words! 

Wider curriculum 
We started a new art unit this half term, working with clay to build our own sculptures. We began our first lesson by practicing some different techniques for modeling the clay with our hands. We found this really tricky, clay is so much harder than play dough! But we still had a great time.
