In English this week Caterpillars have been looking at Antony Browne books and his amazing illustrations.

Thursday was WORLD BOOK DAY! We all came to school in fancy dress as a character from a book, we all looked fantastic!








In Maths we have continued to look at length, mass and volume. We were able to measure different liquids and even measured our feet! We then went on to record and compare our findings using less than, more than and equals to (<  >  =).

In Topic we have been looking more at Norfolk. We have also planted bulbs into pots which we will be observing and recording how they grow over the next 6 weeks.
