We practiced the tricky skill of measuring with rulers today. It was also really impressive to see the children try to estimate lengths as well…great job everyone.

Art - Our beautiful clay tiles
Today, we created some amazing designs onto the clay tiles we made last week. There were some stunning creations here.
Maths - To estimate and measure lengths in centimetres.
Today we continued our unit on length and had a practical lesson on measuring using a ruler. We measured different objects around the classroom. We had to estimate first and then measured and recorded the actual length. We also had to remember to record in centimetres / cm
Art - To paint my tile and follow my design.
Today we got to paint our clay tiles. Everyone was really excited to paint their tiles and followed their plans carefully. They are very excited to bring them home when they are dry!
Phonics - To know how many syllables are in words.
This week we have been looking at syllables in Phonics. Today we used the instruments to tap out the syllables in different words. We spoke about syllables being how many beats are in a word. NOT how many phonemes / sounds are in a word.
Art - To make a clay tile.
Today in Art we made our clay tiles that we designed a couple of weeks ago. We learnt how to warm up the clay. Then we rolled out the clay and cut out a rectangle. We then used the tools to add the details to our tiles. In a couple of weeks time we will then paint our tiles, before bringing them home.
