Week 7 - Superheroes

We have been learning about superheroes and have loved reading the story Supertato! He has also been helping us with our maths! In maths we have been subtracting this week. We have been using cubes to help us takeaway and have enjoyed understanding this concept! Some of us have been reading number sentences and working out the answer, taking more than one number away and some of us have been subtracting using tens and units.
 
We have focused on mindfulness and mental health this week to accompany our non-uniform day to raise money for Scope. We have been practising giving compliments to people and understanding how this makes us feel. We have been learning to relax and listen to mindfulness music and sleep sounds to help us calm down. We have been learning to tense parts of our body and count to 10 then relax them. This helps us feel more relaxed which will help us when we are frustrated or cross.

In phonics we have been doing “Fred Talk” to read the sounds in words and blend them together to read a word. Some of us have been hearing the sounds in words and are beginning to write CVC words and words with “special friends” sh, ch and th.
