Willow class explore using a Story Mountain!

This week in Willow, we have started our new Talk for Writing story 'Rosie's Walk'. We have begun by sequencing the story and exploring propositional concepts such as: around, through, over and past. Problem and solutions have been the focus for this week. We have explored this using a story mountain and identifying each obstacle the cheeky fox faced as he was trying to catch Rosie the hen! Willow have found this an amusing story. The children then had a go at drawing their own story mountain, sequencing the events, adding labels and adding sentences summarising the problem in the story. Fantastic work Willow!

Marvellous Maths -  Sharing and grouping This week has been all about sharing equally which has lead nicely into odd and even numbers. The children are gaining a solid understanding of sharing and grouping, explaining how we can identify numbers that are able to be shared equally. This has been really helpful with sharing resources in the outdoor area and negotiating between each other so the resources are shared equally. Such great team work!
