In maths, we have been learning about subtraction, and enjoying playing maths games dice games and particularly skittles to help us, as well as using part whole models, number lines, tens frames and basically anything we can count..

 

In Science we are exploring the seasons of Autumn and Winter by looking at what is happening outdoors, examining what clothes we wear, what animals do in these seasons and we are observing and measuring the weather (rainfall, temperature, wind) each day over a week,
