This week in English, we have been looking at non-fiction books. We looked at the contents page, the index page and the glossary. 

We also learnt what a contraction was! We learnt that it is much easier and much better to write 'I'm' instead of 'I am' and other words like this. For example, writing 'it's' instead of 'it is', 'didn't' instead of 'did not' and so on. 

In Maths, we have been learning how to multiply two numbers. We used arrays to help us.

In Topic this week, we have been looking at snow. Miss Smith got us some fake snow to have look at!

We also looked at which materials would be good to make a house out of, to keep the animals warm and protected in Winter. Miss Smith brought her hairdryer in to test the houses against strong winds!

We laughed a lot when poor Squirrel got blown out of his house and across the room!
