Year 5 Week 6
Well done, Year 5, for another amazing week of learning.
This week in English, we continued our Performance Poetry unit. The children explored a range of poetic features and discussed how these can be used to engage an audience during a performance. They also had the opportunity to perform poems themselves, showing great enthusiasm, confidence and creativity throughout.
In Maths, we completed our unit on volume. The children have become increasingly confident in finding the volume of different shapes, particularly when using cubes to support their understanding. Although estimating volume and capacity proved challenging at times, they demonstrated resilience and worked hard to develop their skills.
In Reading, we have continued enjoying Treason. This week, the children took part in fantastic discussions about the text, focusing on making predictions about what might happen next and answering retrieval questions using evidence from the book. They are very much looking forward to finishing the story next week.
In Science, we continued our Curiously Close topic. This week, the children discussed and planned their own magnifying devices. They carefully labelled their diagrams and made predictions about how effective their designs would be. It was wonderful to see their creativity and scientific thinking in action.
A huge well done to Year 5PS for their fantastic class assembly on Monday. The dedication, effort and enthusiasm that went into the performance made us all incredibly proud. Well done also to all of Year 5 for an excellent Shared Learning Session. The children worked hard on designing and building bridges, and it was wonderful to see how effective their structures were. Thank you to all the families who were able to attend and support the children.
Please remember to read at least five times each week and continue practising on Times Tables Rock Stars (TTRS).
A reminder that there will be no swimming next week. Children will take part in their usual PE lesson instead.
Have a lovely weekend! 😊
Reception Summer 2 Week 6
Well done for a great week everyone!
This week in Maths, we have been consolidating our learning of number bonds to 10. The pupils took part in a range of practical and written activites to help strengthen their understanding and recall. They have loved the activities and are becoming increasingly confident in recalling their number bonds to 10. We also completed our end of year Maths assessment, and the pupils have worked incredibly hard and did an amazing job. We are so proud of them!
In Topic, we talked about the places that are special to use and discussed the reasons why they are special. We enjoyed reading Knuffle Bunny and explored the places that were important to Trixie in the story before sharing our own.
We have been practising our handwriting this week and were very excited to write some sentences in our new Year 1 books ready for next year!
Have a lovely weekend everyone!
Monday 20th July - Last day of term, 1:15pm finish.
Year 4 Summer 2 Week 6
Well done Year 4 for another great week! The children got to meet their new teacher this week which they all enjoyed and found very exciting. They did lots of fun activities with their Year 5 teacher!
In English this week, we have been looking at features of balanced arguments in preparation to write our own. We have recapped our learning on present perfect tense as well as possibility verbs. We have planned our balanced argument all about whether schools should only serve locally produced food and how this might affect the environment. Next week, we will write our balanced argument. In Maths, we have been continuing to recap our learning across Year 4.
In Shared Reading, we have read a poem together called 'The Raven'. The children worked hard to draw a picture using their inference skills and they also answered questions based on the poem.
In Science, we have learned about food waste and the children made a fantastic poster all about how to prevent food waste and reasons why it is bad. We also finished off our learning about vehicles in D.T and they have a good understanding of how simple machines work.
Please remember to bring in plastic bags next week as we will start to send books home from Wednesday onwards. Thank you!
Have a lovely weekend!
Year 3 Summer Week 6
Year 3 have had another brilliant (and very warm!) week, and we’re so proud of how hard everyone has worked.
In maths, we have have been recapping how to multiply and divide 2‑digit numbers by 1‑digit numbers, as well as practising how to find the perimeter of different shapes.
In English, we've been busy drafting our letters to our new teachers and are now ready to write our final neat versions next week!
Science brought an exciting end to our compost box investigation - all the food had decomposed, leaving only natural materials like sand and bark behind.
In History, we wrapped up our Roman Empire topic by learning why the Romans left Britannia and writing letters to Emperor Honorius to thank them for what they brought to our country.
In art this afternoon, Year 3 enjoyed creating their own mosaic pictures after exploring lots of different mosaic styles for the past few weeks!
Please remember to bring in plastic bags next week as we will start to send books home from Wednesday onwards. Thank you!
Have a wonderful weekend!
