A hot and sticky week

This week in Maths we have been learning about Capacity. We have been using rice, water and sand to compare the capacity of several different containers. We have used our results to order the containers by their capacity. We have been using vocabulary associated with capacity to talk about our results.

These are some of the words we have been using for our maths talk this week; Measure, Fill, Full, Half full, Empty, Half empty, Nearly full, Nearly empty, Overflowing, capacity, Estimate, Most and Least.

In Literacy this week we have read the story Oliver’s Vegetables. We have retold the story ordering the foods correctly into the days of the week. The stories were so good that Mr Stones and Miss Shaw had to take a look to check that they had been written by Year 1’s!

Just a quick reminder that it is the Infant Sports Day on Thursday afternoon. Please can you check that they have the correct PE kit and that their trainers still fit.

We hope you all enjoy the school disco and have a lovely weekend.
