In English we have been reading the story 'I want my hat back'. We asked questions and we recorded why the bear liked his hat so much. We also spoke about why the rabbit stole the hat.
In Maths we have been learning to subtract. One subtraction is 5 - 2 = 3. Our rule for subtraction sentences, is that you start with the biggest number.
We have been doing some dictation in Guided Reading to help us with our phonics and handwriting.
Science has taken 2 weeks! This is because we have been learning about crystals. A crystal is made when liquid starts off hot and then cools. We made a crystal in the classroom it looked like a flower.

Kaleidoscope making week
This week we were practicing our English skill of writing a story. We wrote the story 'My House is Your House'. We wrote the story starting at the beginning and when a character spoke we tried to use speech marks.
In Science we have been making Kaleidoscopes. We had to look in the kaleidoscopes that we made and had to draw the pattern on to a piece of paper. You have to spin the kaleidoscope to make different patterns. You need to shine it at the light because then you can see the patterns better.
Throughout the week we have been practicing writing our capital letters so that we can improve our sentences. Please remember these when you are writing at home!
