Monet Week

Hello,

What a fantastic week we have had!

We started out with the story 'The Train Ride'. We read this together, acted it out and thought about the repeated phrases and rhyming words. We all had a go at rewriting the story, and all of our work was brilliant!

In art this week we have spent some time learning about the artist Claude Monet. He was a french impressionist artist. We look carefully at his painting 'The Water Lily Pond' and created our own water lilies with collage and careful tearing, folding  and cutting skills. The results were amazing, we just had to put them all up on display and make our own water lily pond which is beautiful.

In Maths we have been using some of the skills we have learnt to try and solve some maths problems. We looked at different combinations, ordering money values, identified shapes as well as odd and even numbers.

On Friday we were wearing our own sports clothes to school for the fun run which is coming up on Saturday the 19th May. We hope to see lots of you there - it's always such an exciting event.

We also got Paddington in our celebration assembly today for best attendance! Well done Oak!

This weeks star award has gone to George Burgess for making good choices and trying his ebst with his learning, Well done George!

Plop our learning owl will be flying home with McKenzie for persevering with her learning and being pleased for her friends. Well done McKenzie!

We hope you all have a lovely weekend,

Love Oak Class

  1. I liked making the water lily background and I also liked doing odd and even numbers in Maths. I was pleased McKenzie got Plop because she's a good friend and she's always nice to people.
