Week beginning 25th September 2023

In English we read a poem called Snail by John Drinkwater. We enjoyed performing the poem and we found all the rhyming words. We wrote our own sets of rhyming words and matched pictures and words that rhyme. We enjoyed finding out facts about snails and we wrote a sentence about one of the facts we learned.

In maths this week we used the vocabulary more, less, fewer, greater and equal. Today we used the mathematical symbols greater than > and less than < to compare two quantities.
