Castle facts: Beginning our topic of ‘towers, turrets and tunnels’ we have been researching facts about castles. The children have been using a variety of non-fiction books to find and read a fact. They have been using their writing skills to copy the fact down for their research.

Recognising tens and 1s: In Numeracy this week we have been practising our number writing along with understanding the value of numbers. The children have been looking at how a number is created – looking at how the placement of the digit determines its value.
