This week was science week and the children enjoyed two days of lots of different scientific investigations and activities! Amonst many other things, in Class 3 we investigated what would happen if we dropped a raisin into a glass of still and sparkling water (would it float or sink?) and we had lots of fun making blue slime using cornflour and water! The children loved seeing how the slime would turn from solid to liquid in just a matter of seconds. 

This week we also worked on our subtraction skills in maths and used the number line method to help us find the difference! In Literacy we wrote an explanation text on 'How to plant a seed'. 

In PE we did lots of running and counted our steps using a pedometer!

We hope you all have an enjoyable weekend!

The children worked really hard on their assessments this week and we look forward to sharing your child's results with you at parents evening.

This week we also did some paper weaving as part of our DT topic!

In RE we read the story of Jesus healing the leper and thought about what we can learn from this story. 

We really enjoyed dressing up for Red Nose Day. Thank you all for your generous donations!

As it was a busy week with assessments, we were unable to read with all of the children. We will make sure we catch up with our 1:1 readers next week! 

Have a lovely weekend!

What a brilliant first week back we had. The children were so excited to finally perfom their assembly this week! We were so impressed with how well they learned their lines and their acting and singing was brilliant too! We hope you enjoyed watching it :)

This week we also did some more work on the past tense, changing regular and irregular verbs from present to past tense! 

In maths we looked at measuring weight and solved tricky two step word problems including weight! 

In PSHE&C we discussed what makes each one of us special an unique! 

We are excited to see what everyone will be dressed up as for world book day next thursday!!

Have a great weekend!

Happy Half-Term everyone! We can't believe how quickly this half-term has flown by.

This week in Literacy we focused on different Grammar points such as using commas, conjunctions, plurals and the past tense correctly. 

In Maths we worked on our 2, 5 and 10 times tables and thought about how Multiplication is the inverse of Division! We thought about ways of showing this using a range of different methods. 

We also practised rehearsing our lines for our class assembly, which is coming up soon (1st March!). All the children have been given their lines to learn at home and we would be really grateful if you could practise these with your children! We have also asked a few of the children to bring in suitable outfits/costumes. Please don't worry, if you haven't got anything to bring in, just let us know on the Monday we come back. The children have also been given the words to our songs and we hope they will learn these really well over the holidays! 

Have a great week!!
