St Piran Class Newsletter Friday 10th March

St Piran Class Newsletter- 10th March 2017

This week we have been learning about fractions in our Maths. The children have been brilliant at splitting playdough shapes into equal halves. In our English we wrote our own versions of the gingerbread man with our own characters. The children enjoyed our Cornish carousel day with Trevithick class on Monday.

 

Phonics

This term we will be continuing our Phase 5 in Phonics. This week we have been learning about the alternative pronunciations of ‘u’, ‘i’ and ‘ear’. Next week we will be learning ‘ar’, ‘air’, ‘or’.

 

Home Learning

Our home learning this week is linked to our fractions learning. The children either need to read the fraction and colour in the shape appropriately or to decorate half of the biscuit template provided. For extra home learning this week practise splitting shapes into equal halves or quarters. The children really loved using playdough to explore this.

 

Support tips:

  • Vocabulary we have used in the classroom this week-whole, equal, half, halves, splitting, parts, and quarters.
  • Cutting out shapes and cutting them in half helps children to understanding halving shapes.
