This week we got out the giant world map, recapped our continents knowledge and discovered exactly where Japan is. Pupils used some detective work to decide where different animals can be found in the world and we also decided where on the planet we would most like to visit and why. Our geography skills are improving and we have some meerkat explorers in our class with itchy feet! Click on the link below to see some photos on our gallery page.

Pupils came home with this week’s Reading Buddy homework today which should be completed by next Thursday. In a slight change from last term’s set up, pupils will now also need to read at least once at home to get their stamp towards our treat. Some of our meerkats do a super job practicing their reading at home and it really does help their fluency and understanding across the curriculum. Reading at least 3 times a week at home will support pupils in meeting the end of year reading expectations. Hopefully they will enjoy their reading and become clever bookworms!
