This week in Science we have been learning about the life cycle of a butterfly. We found out that a caterpillar sheds its skin several times before building it its chrysalis and that metamorphosis is the name given to the transformation from caterpillar to a butterfly.
The caterpillars in our classroom came out of their chrysalis's this week and now they are beautiful butterflies. Our butterflies are called painted ladies.
In English we drew our fantasy settings onto our glass jars, using special glass pens. We thought about what we would be able to see in our fantasy settings and generated WOW! words to describe these.
In Maths we been learning how to find a quarter of a number. We found out that you have to share the number into four equal groups. "A quarter of 16 is 4."
In Dance we thought about the next part of our splash dance. We thought about how we could travel along the bottom of the swimming pool and what we might do when we needed to take a breathe and added these to the movements we generated last week.
In Computing we explored using the text tools on clicker 6 to change the font, colour and size of our writing.
In PSHE we watched a video about changes and thought about how our learning has changed during our time in Year One.
This week Plop is going home with Miss Howells. He is looking forward to telling her all about his adventures this term and can't wait to see some of the children at the Strawberry Fayre tomorrow!
Next Friday is our sharing assembly so this weekend Miss Howells would like us all to learn our words.
I liked the shering assemley.
