We have had another fantastic week in Birch class this week. It has been Maths’s week at #TeamCarrMill and we have learnt about estimation and multiplication through the story 'How many Jellybeans?' We used our estimation skills to guess how many jellybeans were in the jar and then our multiplication skills to count the exact total. The person with the most accurate estimation got to take the whole jar home!
In English, we have been writing about a journey down a river. We have tried hard to use noun phrases in our writing to make it more interesting for the reader. We are proud of our work!
In computing we have shared some very important messages with the children around staying safe online. We used the 'Jessie and Friends video' from the 'Think U Know website to talk about what images are safe to share online and how to keep ourselves safe.
Thank you to all the children that have entered our maths story competition, we have had some fantastic entries. Well done!

We ended our week with Kid's choice because of our high attendance last week. Fingers crossed we have won again this week!
Next week brings even more excitement as we will be exploring a new story in English called 'The Tiger who came to Tea' and starting our Geography topic based on Villages, Towns and Cities. Do you know the name of the town that we live in?
