​Team CH have been learning the twelve months of the year. We spoke about how months are measurements of time, that consists of 28 or 30 days. Next, we sang along to a song that helped us remember the order of the months. Using this song, we then ordered the months of the year correctly. After this, we explored pictures that reminded us of the four seasons and matched key vocabulary to a season. Finally, after lots of talk we matched months into seasons.

This week in math's children have been comparing objects ​using mathematical symbols to express these relationships.  We have also been verbalizing the comparisons that we have been making.  

Team CH have spent the afternoon thinking about people that have helped us. People such as solders, doctors, nurses, firefighters and paramedics.  We talked about Mervyn Kersh a solider who fought in the second world war, Nicole Brown who is part of the Royal Navy and Joan Bunn who was a firefighter during the second world war. 

We also looked at other ways of remembrance such as visiting the SIKH WAR MEMORIAL , wearing a poppy and holding a minute silence. 

This week in Literacy the children were introduced to one of Judith Kerr's most famous books, 'The tiger who came to tea'. Team CH loved putting the Jigsaw pieces together to reveal their new book. Once the children had discovered the text we all sat down to listen to the story. We enjoyed repeating favourite phrases such as 'would you like'. Finally we talked about the characters in the story and the problem.

This week Team CH have been exploring length. We started by talking about the things we know when it comes to two digit numbers such as, the amount of tens and ones.  Next, we noticed that the bead string was made up of groups of ten which helped us to quickly locate a multiple of ten. Finally, we found a number of different lengths.
