Y1 Nativity: What a fantastic job the Year 1s did of performing the Nativity this week! They did a total of four performances, and we are very proud of them all. The Year 2 children enjoyed watching their friends in the Nativity on Wednesday afternoon. Thank you to parents for providing items for costumes and for coming to watch! There were a few items of clothing left behind from nativity costumes, including a white Next t-shirt, and a black Nutmeg zip up hoodie. Please speak with your class teacher if these belong to your child.

In maths, the Year 1 children have learnt to find and subtract a part, recall fact families and subtract to find how many is left, including using the number line. Year 2 have learnt how to find related facts, bonds to 100, add and subtract ones and add by making 10.  

The children have learnt a range of winter poems in different styles this week in Curious Quests with a particular focus on verbs. They have also learnt about rhyming words and similes.
