Tremendous Tuesday

Tuesday has been tremendous ! 

The Bongos had a great guided reading session this morning where they all worked hard learning how to answer comprehension questions. Spelling was great fun as the class worked with their spelling partners to write lists of homophones.

Maths was a very busy lesson with a number bonds to 20 challenge as the warm up. There were then lots of different activities going on in the room. some children did number bonds to 20 on building blocks, some worked with a partner to make a beanstalk with leaves added in pairs to make 50 and some were set the challenge of finding tricky pairs such as 65+35 to make 100. This group then worked with me to do partitioning leading on to partitioning to add 2 digit numbers.

This afternoon we have had another  look at the landscapes of Jean Metzinger and created our own mosaic landscapes. Using squares was much easier then the hexagons we tried last week.
