Hatchmere's Class Blog 7.2.25

Date: 7th Feb 2025 @ 3:19pm

Hatchmere have been ‘On Fire Maguire’ this week with their learning, I am so proud of their progress!

We have been having lots of fun on our bus tour of London. The children used their tickets to board the bus and said Good Morning and thanked our lovely bus driver. They then walked down the aisle to choose their seats. The Bus Driver has taken us to the London Eye, Buckingham Palace, The London Underground, for a boat ride on the River Thames and to Tower Bridge. Hatchmere have been taking this learning into their play and have, by themselves, visited lots of real and imaginary places.

This week was Child Mental Health Awareness Week. The children took part in a nationwide live assembly. The topic tied in beautifully with our friendship theme and the children were able to talk confidently about what made them happy. Please visit the link below where you will find out more information from our Mental Health Lead Mrs Bettley and our ELSA (Emotional Learning Support Assistant) Mrs Riley:

In Literacy this week the children have started their London Journey story maps to support their writing task for next week. The children certainly know their way around London and can talk about the places they want to visit.

In Maths this week our Aliens have been flying around the world and helping us to look at number bonds. We have also explored the numbers 6 and 7 and found that they are ‘5 and a little bit’. The children have been so smart in figuring out that 6 and 7 have their own number bonds too. Hatchmere really enjoy being number detectives and finding hidden numbers in the whole. Can they show you how fast they can count to 6 or 7 on their fingers? Remind them to use their ‘fast five’.
