Year 4 began to apply their knowledge of fractions to some real life problems. The big question was which table to choose to try and get the most chocolate? The problem was made even trickier because some tables had one bar chocolate whilst others had 2 or 3. We kept taking a pause to work out how much chocolate each person was getting to try and help others make a wise choice. Once everyone had chosen, we worked out the final share.
Since everyone had worked so hard, we decided to actually enjoy some of the chocolate. But not before we worked out how many pieces we would get each!
Yesterday, we were lucky enough to have the Whitburn Church Visit to share an “Open the Book” story with us.
Our story was “The Walls Fall Down” which tells us of the battle of Jericho.
Linked to World Book Day and our text of the week “The Smartest Giant in Town”, EYFS decide to be the kindest children in the land! We have hidden books all around Whitburn for children to enjoy. We encourage you to read the book at home and then hide it again for someone else to find!
Please comment below if you found one of books and let us know where you found it 😁
Happy Hunting!
It was amazing to see every child in school come to our specially prepared book stall to choose one of the world book day books to read and take home.
Thanks to WHSmith for providing us with the books and special thanks to Sophie and Isla for setting up the stall and helping everyone pick a book they would love.
Happy reading everyone!
We have had a fantastic World Book Day and have enjoyed some lovely stories and activities.
EYFS have loved sharing our favourite stories together at school and looking at everyone’s fantastic costumes!
Everyone loved coming together to see all the fantastic costumes to celebrate World Book Day. Even the staff got involved and dressed up as the characters from the book Peter Pan.
EYFS had a great day learning how to make pancakes. We made the batter, chose our own toppings and then most importantly tasted them!
Tomorrow we will write the recipe to help others make pancakes.
