    Topic

    This week we looked at Savannah’s

    (grasslands) which featured in the story book

    ‘Bringing the Rain to Kapiti Plain’. We located

    Kenya on the world map and talked about

    the animals that might live there. We then

    created some amazing sunset/silhouette

    pictures and experimented mixing paints to

    find different colours.

    Literacy

    This week in Literacy, we

    read the book ‘Bringing the

    Rain to Kapiti Plain’, a

    beautifully illustrated book capturing the

    essence of the African plains. We discussed

    what a savannah is and what is unique

    about the habitat of the savannah. The

    children were then able to research a

    savannah animal in order to complete the

    next page of their zigzag animal fact

    books.

    In Phonics, we learnt the trigraph sound

    igh, and the digraph sound ur, we have

    also continued to revise all previously

    taught digraph sounds. Please continue to

    revise the words and sounds in the blue

    Phonics book.

    In Maths this

    week, the children have

    been learning a very

    important skill; doubling.

    They have also been

    learning to use the + and = signs.

    Notices Please do your best to have your child

    arrive at school by 8am.

    Your child is

    allowed to bring in

    a toy pet to use in

    the Vets Role play

    area in class. Please

    make sure it has

    your child name

    and class on it if possible.

    Named belongings
