Team 2 WB: 4.10.21

Date: 8th Oct 2021 @ 3:56pm

This week in Team 2 we have been developing our understanding of sentence structure. Keeping in theme with our story Troll Swap we have been describing trolls using noun phrases. We have particularly been focusing on developing our vocabulary by using more descriptive words. For instance, we changed the word ‘big’ in our sentences to words like colossal, huge, gigantic and enormous which is amazing for Team 2! In maths this week we have been rehearsing our understanding of counting in 2s, 5s and 10s. We have been solving these problems by looking at a range of number and word problems. We’re getting really good at this now! At the beginning of the week Mrs Caroe led our Art session and we continued making our owls. We then got the Beebots out during our computing sessions and worked in groups to navigate the Beebots around the classroom. PE this week was very exciting, we took the parachute onto the playground and played a variety of different games strengthening our physical development but building on our previous skills such as coordination. On Thursday, we went outside for science and walked around the school grounds questioning the materials different objects are made of. For instance, we were looking at the glass in the windows and comparing it to the wooden fences ready for next week when we will be comparing the suitability of different materials. Finally, to end the week we had a (very sweaty) costume party for Mouse Mania.
