This week we have had lots of opportunities to develop our speaking and listening skills by practising the Christmas play. We are really good at singing the songs now. Ask your child what they do in the play and if they have any lines.

We have also read the story of The Billy Goats Gruff. We thought about the Trolls bridge and how much weight it would hold. This led us to dicuss weight and the language associated with it, such as heavier and lighter. We have read a range of stories featuring goats and trolls!

Also this week we have done a lot of work in Maths using the Numicon. This will really become a strength and help us throughout school.

Zak was pretending to be the teacher and asking the children to identify different pieces of Numicon!

Thomas was reading the story of the Billy Goats Gruff and looking under the flaps. He tried to guess what was underneath.
