Dosbarth Miss Burgoyne have been working hard in their Mathematics and Numeracy lessons. Some of us have been exploring number bonds to 10 using natural materials and the part-part whole model. Others have been learning to subtract 10 from numbers they have found on their number hunt, using a 100 square to help.

Christmas Biscuits
Dosbarth Miss Burgoyne have been busy baking and decorating some Christmas biscuits this week, as well as creating other Christmas crafts to sell at our Christmas Fair on Friday. The biscuits smell delicious… don’t forget to come along if you can!
Jam Making
Dosbarth Miss Burgoyne have been busy making blackberry jam.. yum yum! We went on a welly walk to pick the blackberries and then froze these. Last week we worked together to make our jam using our mathematical skills to carefully measure out our ingredients, and our literacy skills to follow the recipe. This week we tasted it on some bread and it was delicious! We linked this to our Stone Age theme by discussing how berries were part of the Stone Age diet.
Cave Building
Dosbarth Miss Burgoyne have been busy working in teams to build caves and acting out what life was like in the Stone Age. The learners did a great job!

Maths
Dosbarth Miss Burgoyne have been working hard in Mathematics and Numeracy this week. Some of us have been learning our number bonds using our problem-solving skills to work these out, and others have been learning to add 10 onto numbers.
Cave Paintings
This week Dosbarth Miss Burgoyne have moved on to the next era on our timeline where we have been exploring the Stone Age. As part of this, we have learnt about cave paintings and have created our own. They look great!
