This week we've started learning our teen numbers. We've learnt a new number each day and played lots of different games and activities to represent the number in different ways. Today we played place value basketball, we started off with the game on topmarks (https://www.topmarks.co.uk/learning-to-count/place-value-basketball) where we learnt that the 1 at the start of the teen number is actually [...]
We've started learning all about minibeasts! We've been looking at different types of minibeasts and the micro-habitats that they live in. We've been learning about different words such as 'predator' 'prey' 'camoflague.' Oscar demonstrated to us that his coat is camoflauged!
