Telling the Time.


Custom Myspace Clock
Being able to tell the time on both an analogue and a digital clock or watch is important. Have a practise here if you aren't sure. Ask somebody at home to help you if you need it.

Word Wall

We have a Word Wall. We add interesting words to it once we have found out their meaning. Then our task is to find the word somewhere else and then to use it ourselves in our writing or our speech. Some of this week's words... thrifty frugal spendthrift squander extravagant

Lucky Us!

For three weeks we are very lucky to have Mr Wedd in our class. He has taken Red Group for Reading and Cubes for Maths. Thank you Mr Wedd for our learning!

Maths Song

Last term we watched and sang this song to help us understand area and perimeter in MAths. See if you like it and whether it helps you with your maths.

Written Language Term Three

This term we are using an app on the I pad to motivate and inspire us to write well. Our first piece of writing was describing our first wander through Epic Citadel. The writing was fantastic! much too good to leave in our draft books, so we had to publish them so we can share. In this writing we tried to use accurate descriptions, similes, metaphors and some alliteration if possible. Well done Room 22. Amazing!
