Around the village

We have had a busy week this week. On Wednesday we went for a walk around the village. We had a history lesson the day before and had compared photos of Redbourn in the olden days and Redbourn now. We looked at the buildings on our walk. We also talked about and practised our road safety. There were plenty of opportunities to read signs and notices and we found many shapes and numbers while we were walking. We will be using the photos we took to make our own paintings and drawings.
In Maths we have been learning about capacity. The children used language such as full, half full and empty and we also used cups to find out which containers held the most and least amounts. We also estimated how much sand a bowl would contain. The children were able to explain their reasoning.
On Friday we had our May Day celebration. Eadie was our queen and Jake was our king. We have practised our dance really hard and we did a fantastic job on the day. Well done everyone!
Our home learning for the week is to have a look at the website and our Blog, so hopefully everyone will read this and maybe add a comment. Have a great break.

    "It was good to learn about capacity as I haven't learned it before. I learned to make things half full and it was easy to do"

    "On our village walk, I saw a wall and it was cracked, so that means it was old"

  16. I liked doing Maths last week. The biggest container had the most in it because it was the tallest. I liked walking round Redbourn and looking at the buildings and finding numbers on all the coloured doors - I can't wait to do my painting when I get back to school. Ruby
