This week, the children continued their unit on measuring by focusing on capacity and volume. They made potions using cups of ingredients that were full, half full, nearly full and nearly empty. In addition, they compared different capacities using the mathematical symbols of greater than and less than.
Next week, we will begin our multiplication and division unit of work, focusing on counting in 10s, arrays and making equal groups.

RE
This week we start our new topic, In what ways is a church important to believers? The children began this topic by looking at the religion of Islam and the importance of mosques.
Beech Class Forest School
Beech class were back at forest school this week. It’s been a dry few weeks so we made our own mud with water, painted with it and made potions, soup and hot chocolate. We had fun transferring water from one container to another with syringes and pots. We finished up by resting on the grass and thinking about what our favourite part of the session that day had been.
