Week Commencing 14.02.2011

Literacy – This week we have been reading myths sets in Ancient Greece.  We have learnt about some Gods but can you learn about Zeus, Athena and Poseidon. Furthermore, can you research Pegasus?  What was special about Pegasus?

Phonics- Challenge yourself!  Can you read for 10 minutes everyday?   Remember to fill in your Blue reading journal too

Numeracy – “Oh no! I have missed the bus.  I wonder how long the next one will be?” Next week we are going to be learning time but we are going to make our own Bearwood Bus route and timetable.  Practise telling the time using analogue and digital clocks this weekend.  If you go anywhere record how long it takes you to get there.  On Monday we are going on a walk around Bearwood  to look at how time is used and learn about bus timestables.

This weekend set yourself three goals to achieve.  Talk to someone about your goals and how you are going to achieve them.  On Sunday think about whether you achieved them or not.  Remember one of your goals could be to do your Get Talking Get Learning!

In topic next week we are going to be learning about Adinkra symbols and how they represent inner qualities.  Talk to someone about your inner qualities.  Do you want to add anymore inner qualities? Can you describe the inner qualities of someone at home?

We are going to be designing our own modern day Adinkra symbols.  Think about your inner qualities and what symbols you could use to represent them for example a heart could show you are a very loving person.
