Today we have been measuring objects with different units. First we measured in cubes and then we measured the same objects with counters. The counters are bigger than the cubes so we didn’t need as many!

Dudley Zoo Trip
After designing islands and planning which animals would live their, Year 1 and 2 needed to learn more about the animals. What better place to learn about them than the zoo? We spent the day at Dudley Zoo learning about the animals and where their natural habitat is. We had a wonderful day exploring but we were all exhausted afterwards. This has made us all even more excited to continue to learn about animals on islands.

Sock Monster!
On Monday morning there were odd socks lying all of the classroom! Miss Darby soon found a bag of more odd socks. The sock monster must have been in to the classroom overnight. The children worked hard to pair up all of the socks. What maths could they do with the socks? They soon realised that socks always come in 2s. The children learnt how to chant in 2s using the socks to help them! What fun maths.
Ordering numbers up to 50
After counting the animals, Year 1 came across a problem. A zoo keeper sent a message to tell us that the animal food from the zoo was all a mess and needed to be in order. The children counted the good and put them in order of number from smallest to largest.
They were are a great help for the zoo keeper!

Cleaning your teeth
The school nurse came to me to visit us to teach us how to clean our teeth. We know that we should be brushing for two minutes twice a day. We should make circles on our teeth the brush and not push too hard.
