This week has been a lot of fun! We eased in to the week with our superhero topic and the kids loved it!
We also learnt about melting ice and rescued some polar animals and superheroes from the frozen Arctic ice!
We revised our numbers from 1-20 by going on a hunt to put poor Mr.Caterpillar back together again. The kids had to work together as a team to figure out the order of the numbers and this meant that they also had to recognise them all. I was so impressed at how well they worked together, they got two balls in the class bucket!
