This week Blue Class have been learning:

English

• We practised using apostrophes (singular possessive) in sentences and in our writing.
• We started looking at the author and poet Michael Rosen.
• We enjoyed listening to and reciting some of his most famous poems.
• We wrote biographies about his life and used sub headings to order our information.
• We wrote instructions for how to make chocolate cake.

Maths

• We continued to learn about time.
• We practised using o clock, half past, quarter to and quarter past.
• We practised our five times table to help us tell the time in five minute intervals.
• We used ‘past’ and ‘to’ to tell the time to the nearest five minutes.

Topic

• We found out about the history of chocolate, and how it was brought to Europe and made into the chocolate we know today.
• We made our own posters, imagining that we were the creators of the world’s first chocolate bar!
• We made Michael Rosen’s chocolate cake (otherwise known as chocolate cornflake cakes!)
• In science, we looked at what a plant needs to have to be able to grow,

Well done on a brilliant week Blue Class!

Next week we will solving problems involving time and continuing to use the work of Michael Rosen to inspire our own poetry writing.
