This week in class...

In Literacy we have been continuing our Supertato topic and have finally managed to get the Evil Pea back in the freezer where he belongs. We created superhero masks and went on a hunt around school searching for the Evil Pea! We managed to find him and put him back in the freezer. We found rocket ice lollies in the freezer so we had a little treat too!

In Maths we have been looking at Mass and Capacity. We have been weighing and measuring objects and have been learning about heavy and light. In the water area we have looked at capacity and have focused on empty, nearly empty, half full, nearly full and full.

Each day this week we have recieved a strange postcard from a mystery person. On Friday they sent us a parcel with an egg inside and asked us to look after it. We have made predictions about what could be inside. We can't wait to find out what is inside next week.
