AUTUMN CURRICULUM NEWSLETTER
WHAT WE HAVE BEEN UP TO THIS TERM
In maths, we have spent time looking at the value of digits in a two digit number. The children have made the number using Base 10 equipment and then progressed to drawing what the number looks like as a pictorial representation.
In English, we have been learning lots about Africa. The class have spent time exploring different African countries as well as immersing themselves in lots of different types of writing from poetry to persuasion.
