Driffield Church Of England Voluntary Controlled Infant School

Sorry the round up is later than usual - it has been a very busy week. 

This week we have painted our vehicles ready to test them next week - as the vehicle has been designed for Grannie Island and her sheep Alecina we will be pushing it down a slope with a toy sheep in it. 

In Science we have been learning all about birds. The excitement of spotting "Bobert" the robin and all his sparrow friends has been really nice to see. We watched a video of birds and there songs and then we went outside to see if we could hear our own birds using the Merlin bird song app. As you would expect with 25 excitable children the blue & great tits vanished but we could hear the sparrows. Next week we will be writing instructions on building a bird feeder and learning more on how to care for the birds in our environment. If you haven't brought a bottle in yet please do. 

Phonics next week is a round up of the half terms learning - Grow the code:
/oo/ u ew ue u-e ui ou oo fruit soup
/ee/ ea e e-e ie ey y ee
/s/ c se ce ss
/z/ se s zz
/oa/ ow oe ou o-e o oa 

In Maths we will be moving on to addition & subtraction within 20. 

We hope you all have a lovely weekend.
