Hello,

We hope you have all had a pleasant week and that you have managed to avoid the recent showers!

This week, we have been using Pie Corbett to rehearse and perform an information text about Storm Unicorns. The children used props and actions in order to show their understanding of the key words used. Using the WAGOLL example as a guide, we then innovated the text in order to draft and edit our own Dragon information pages for the Science labs at Oaklands. After half term, we look forward to moving on to our new topic of learning, Healthy Eating. We shall be writing a narrative to teach other children about the importance of a balanced diet.

In Maths, we have been learning how to multiply and divide by 10. We then applied our learning in partner groups, when measuring objects around the room and converting our readings between centimetres and millimetres. After half term, we look forward to learning about Measure in further depth, beginning with Capacity (ml and L). During the holidays, look out for different types of measurement and be ready to report back to class when you return to school – did you measure ingredients for a cake, or read along the scale when measuring liquid in a watering can?

Please refer your child(ren) to the Home Learning sticker in their homework diaries – the activity shall enable the children to consider what Sacraments are as well as why they are important.

We hope you all have a relaxing break and look forward to seeing you after the holidays. Well done to those who have made excellent Dragon models for their topic work this term – photos to follow soon!

Kind regards,

Miss Honeywell, Mrs Luter and Mrs Stewart.
