18th March

What a wonderful welcome back it has been. Thank you so much to all the parents and children who have been so lovely and welcoming. Beech class have been AMAZING this week and have been showing me how much progress they have made in their learning. 
We had a lovely session with Paul on Tuesday, we were looking at food chains and how all the vegetation and animals link together. We played an excellent running game where we all had different roles. We had herbivores, carnivores and plant as well as a sun which released people who had been eaten!

We had time to share two more wonderful Mary Anning models which had been made by Rosa and Lottie. I am so impressed by the children's engagement with this topic and how much information they can recall. 

On Thursday, we started our new Maths topic of measuring weight and mass. The children did some excellent comparison work today, measuring objects from our classroom and deciding which was heavier and which was lighter. 

Things you can do to help your child next week:

• Talk about ‘mass’ in terms of ‘heavier than’ and ‘lighter than’
• Read and share their favourite story at home, it would be lovely if they could bring it in and talk about it in class too!
• Choose a favourite London landmark and research some facts about it
• Think about what food webs might be happening in and around where we live in time to tell Paul on Tuesday

Have a delightful weekend, it is Run4Rosie and the sun is supposed to be shining!
Best wishes,
