We have been learning to recognise wholes, halves and quarters. 

We cut straws up to represent a whole, half or a quarter.

Translation

We have been learning about translations in maths. A translation is when a shape or object is moved!

The star has moved, this is translation.

Shape Monsters!

We made monsters using our favourite shapes, we found out how many sides and corners they have!

Robin Hood!

As part of our Myths and Legends topic, we read and talked about the story of Robin Hood.

We made WANTED posters and stories about Robin and his Merry Men!

One beautiful day in Sherwood Forest, Robin and the merry men was trying to steal the money from the Sheriff of Nottingham to give back to the poor farmers. The Sheriff was angry at Robin Hood and then the Sheriff went back to his castle. Robin was at Sherwood Forest, the Sheriff sent his soldiers to Sherwood Forest to capture Robin Hood so he can talk to him all about what he has to do in Sherwood Forest. Robin got Sheriff in the bush, Robin got the money from the Sheriff and gave it to the poor farmers because the poor farmers were going to starve to death but Robin gave food to the poor farmers.
