Cookie Fractions

This week we have been looking at fractions again and because its nearly the end of term I thought it would be fun to use cookies to practice fractions with.

We watched these clips to start with to think about what we might be doing.

Then children were given some cookies to cut into halves and quarters. 
Then we got to eat our cookies with a cup of milk. 
Some children even dipped their cookies in. 
After all these yummy cookies we wrote about what we had done.

 

Blowing bubbles

Last week we went outside and blew some bubbles. Then we went inside and wrote all about it. We are working hard on writing by ourselves. 

Dinosaur writing

I have been meaning to put this clip up since last week and the children have been asking for it so finally here it is!

Last week we did some writing about 'What would you do if you had a pet dinosaur' and we watched this great song about a pet dinosaur to get us thinking about all the exciting things we could do.

Monday Writing

This morning we did something a bit different for writing. I told the children that I had a surprise for them and then we went for a long walk around the school until we ended up at the playground. Children got to play on the senior playground which was very exciting. When we got back to class we used the 5 W questions (where, when, who, what and why) to create a recount about what we did.

This is our brainstorm - the children came up with all these answers.
