This week we have concluded our focus on our senses and we have looked at the sense of touch and smell. The boys created beautiful texture books and they wrote fabulous adjectives to describe the different materials. The boys also wrote adjectives to describe the objects they could feel in the ‘feely box’.

 

 

To explore our sense of smell the boys took part in an investigation where they were given four pots to smell. The boys needed to decide whether they liked or disliked the smell and then guess what the smell actually was. The boys did brilliantly and all have discerning olfactory systems.

 

In Mathematics this week we have worked on the numbers 14 and 15. In Literacy we have focused on writing and reading the letters d and g.

This afternoon our Groundsman brought in a visitor to RA. He carried a toad that he found in the flowerbeds for all the boys to see. We were all amazed at the size of the toad!

Next half term our Topic will be Houses and Buildings. We encourage ‘Star Boys’ to talk about their homes or buildings they have visited or particularly like. If you visit any places with interesting buildings please email photographs and we would love to share these.

We hope you enjoyed looking at all the lovely work that the boys have done. We hope you agree that they have all been very industrious.

We wish you all a very happy and restful half term break and look forward to seeing you all on Tuesday 3rd November.

Thank you again for all you support
