Team CH have continued being up an active in our counting! Practicing ordinal counting each day has really helped us in becoming familiar with the flow, sound and sequence of numbers. Additionally, our daily counting has supported us in counting in multiples of 2’s, 5’s and 10’s. Today in Team CH we have enjoyed being up and active as we learnt to join in with a song about height and length. We know that height measures how tall something is and that length measure how long something is. We put actions to the words to help us remember there meaning! Our activities included marking our height on a piece of paper that was stuck to the wall and we could identify who we were taller than and who was shorter than us. We also used straws to blow cotton wool balls and discussed which ball travelled the longest distance and which travelled the shortest distance.
We have been making comparison between children in our class and have discussed and answered ‘who is the tallest?’ and ‘who is the shortest?’. This week Team CH have continued working towards their Geography objectives. We began our session by enjoying our quick question quiz and consolidating previous learning that has taken place. Next, we enjoyed an areal tour of Northern Ireland. We really enjoyed talking about all the things we could see. After this, we introduced the words physical and Human features and gave children talk time to really understand these words. Finally, we challenged the children by presenting them with a selection of Human and Physical features for their selected country and asked the children to group their pictures into physical features and Human features.
Following all the hard work children have put in to writing their hold a sentence Team CH took the time to present their work to the audience they had written it for. The children worked hard on developing their oracy skills, including reading with clear expression and intonation. We worked hard to practise our performance so that it was delivered as confidently as possible.
This week we have rounded up our learning by challenging our children to complete number sequences stretching to 120. We are ready for out next steps in learning and will be introducing Unit 2 next week of comparing quantities and measures. Additionally, we will be introducing whole and parts.
This week Team CH have enjoyed a hands on experinece. We talked about ways we might show we believe or enjoy something or someone. We discovered that many Jews feel that by wearing a kippah they are proudly announcing to the world that they are Jewish. This is classed as an 'outward sign' of their faith. We asked the children if they would like to wear a kippah as part of our learning.
This week Team CH started to build basic mouse skills. Children enjoyed the opportunity to apply mouse skills to a creative task. Our learning involved the free online all paintz.app.
This week Team CH have revisited previous learning in order to build on what we already know. We began our learning by talking with our partner about the four countries that are part of the United Kingdom the three countries that are part of Great Britain. Next, using Oddizzi we took an aerial tour of Belfast, the capital of Northern Ireland. We discovered that every country has a capital city. We divide ourselves into the countries England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. After this we spent some time becoming familiar with our respective capital city and finally, we shared our country and capital city. In order to continue this learning, each table has been issued with their very own fact sheet about their country.
Today Team CH have spent time consolidating the words in Spanish for ‘hello’ and ‘my name is …’ in Spanish before learning how to ask somebody how they are feeling in Spanish. We really enjoyed introducing ourselves to our friends and asking them how they are feeling.
