St Patrick's Day

The girls were set the challenge to find St. Patrick's day facts in the library, using the internet and library books.
While they were doing this, Me and Reuben read books and did the 'nursery rhyme puzzles'.
We continued with activities when we got home, puzzles and quizzes.

Mothering Sunday

We made Mothering Sunday cards and had a special family lunch, followed by games of family fortunes.

We researched the history of mothering sunday, finding out about the church, girls in service and simmnel cake.
The girls then did activities, a comprehension, a word challenge, crossword and word search.

maths 14/3/10-21/3/10

Imogen and Geoff  looked at mathematical mapping and the relationship of inversing this process. Later in the week they looked at a computer program involving mapping.
We continued with 10 mins?? of multiplications, trying to do everyday. Imogen did an on-line multiplication challenge and was pleased by her score, she noticed that it was the 8x table she needed to practice, so she looked at the pattern created by the 8x table. Mima continued with 2,3,4,5,10 times tables.
Both did co-ordinates to create a St. Patrick's day picture.
And data analysis of a mothers day  poll.

And most importantly everyday maths of life.
