In March the boys and girls in Miss Mallon’s class have been developing their skills across the curriculum.
In Numeracy the children have been practising their number bonds. The best way to refine number bond understanding is through the use of numicon, practising different ways to make 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 and by doing quick recall of the number bond sums.
In literacy the children were learning about bossy words which are verbs. The children were doing instructional writing and had to include a bossy word in each sentence. The children were also learning about stories in fantasy world settings and thoroughly enjoyed work in this genre. There was lots of creativity, good writing skills and improved independence in writing.
In learning through play the children continue to develop a wealth of skills working with each other, problem solving, leading their peers, joining in with new experiences and taking joy in their learning.
