Week 4 - What is Friendship?

As part of our topic 'Together Stronger', this week we will be exploring the question 'What is friendship?'.

Here are some of the activities we will be doing:

* writing about the qualities of our friends and including the connective 'because'.

* making friendship bracelets by threading beads.

* creating a class piece of art entitled 'Together Stonger' using puzzle pieces.

* circle time activity called 'Bucketful of Kindness'.

* Asking the question - what does it mean to be a class family? Recording our thoughts to start to develop a class song.

* Team games/sports practise

In Maths we have been exploring longer than/shorter than, heavier than/lighter than. This week we will be estimating and checking using capacity - what holds more than? Or what holds less than? All these things can be done at home to practise this vocabulary eg find something longer than this pen, which cup do you think holds more? How can we find out?

If you have anything ready for your class talk then please bring them in to school.

Many thanks, 

Mrs Farrell and Mrs James
