The weeks certainly fly by and what a week it has been. 

National Science week has been great fun. We started the week with some awe and wonder by looking through a simple glass of water and holding an image behind it - and then being shocked and amazed that the image had reversed! Despite Mrs.Jackson being accused of trickery and deception we now know it's not magic but science! We also put water on a plate, lit a tea-light and placed a glass over the candle - once the oxygen inside the glass had gone that water rose up inside the glass. Have a go at home and look at the Dad Lab videos on Youtube for other fab science experiments to do at home. 

In maths this week we have been looking at length and height, next week we will be starting mass with language of heavier & lighter. Phonic sounds next week will be ear (ur sound - learn, early), wr (r sound -wrong, wrist) st/sc (s sound - listen, whistle, science, muscle). 

Thank you for all making a parents evening appointment, Children's drawers will be on the tables with their books in them. Please come in and have a look and i will come round for our 10 minute chat about how your Starfish is doing. 

Have a great weekend. 

Starfish team.
