This week...


Hello everyone,

Firstly, a quick reminder that tomorrow will be the individual school photos. There should hopefully be a form for you to order yours within the next few weeks.
This week we are carrying on looking at the Very Hungry Caterpillar book and we will be making fruit smoothies this week using some of the fruits that the caterpillar munches his way through in the story.
In literacy this week we're going to be retelling the story and attempting to sequence the story correctly. This will hopefully allow children to begin to get familiar with the days of the week as well. In maths this week we are going to be looking at sorting objects by different criteria as well as continuing to look at what number is one more and one less than any given number (up to 10). If you get any chances to practise this at home please take them! To get you in a mathsy state of mind see if you can have a go at this problem:


My coat has three different buttons.
 
Sometimes, I do them up starting with the top button.  Sometimes, I start somewhere else.
 
How many ways can you find to do up my coat?
 
How will you remember them?
 
Do you think there are any more?  How do you know?

Feel free to bring your answers in on a Wow! Moment.
