The children have been learning a new story this week, it is ‘Peter and the Wolf.’ They have really enjoyed learning to re-tell the story with actions and expression. They have drawn story maps, which help the children to remember the story sequence. Next week we will be writing the story over several days. We will be encouraging the children to use capital letters, finger spaces and full stops. We also listened to the musical version of the story, which was a lovely experience.
In Maths they have been learning to subtract numbers. Mostly they understand the difference between addition and subtraction and we have worked hard at mental maths using our fingers to help us.
