In Maths, we completed our post learning activity on addition and our pre-learning activity on our next topic subtraction. During the afternoon sessions, we have been planting plants in the outdoor area and thinking about the different parts of the plant. We have looked at the life cycle of the plant, caterpillar and tadpole and created hanging mobiles to show these life cycles in our classroom.
