Phonics Lo: to understand contractions

 In phonics this week we have been looking again at contacted words, we have practised spelling them and today we played a game matching contracted words with the long version of the words. We are trying really hard to use these words in our writing making sure that we spell them correctly and put the apostrophes in the correct place.

We then made our own candle holders out of salt dough.

Geography Lo: to locate the seven continents on a world map.

Today we learned that a continent is a group of countries. We learnt that there are seven continents and we learnt the names of them. We also had a go at locating the continents on a world map and labelling the world map.  You may like to listen to the continents song at home to help learn the names of the continents.  https://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=&ved=2ahUKEwiti-6f_aX6AhWPX8AKHcdIDz0QtwJ6BAgIEAI&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DK6DSMZ8b3LE%26vl%3Den&usg=AOvVaw0-1CixQd1uagMgXn15d6ID

No outsiders

 Today as part of our assemblies on the idea of no outsiders, we did some work. We looked at the book Can I join your club and thought about what a club is. In the story duck eventually sets up his own club which includes everyone after being rejected himself from other clubs. We talked about similarities and differences and then drew posters to show Our club and the fact that everyone is approved.
