Hello everyone,

We hope that you are well and keeping safe.

This week, we have enjoyed World Book Day on Thursday 3rd March 2022. It was wonderful to celebrate all of our favourite books, authors and characters. Please take a look at our class photos, below:

In English, we have been learning about Jemmy Button and creating our narrative stories. The children have thought carefully about which of the following skills they would like to include in their writing:

• Expanded noun phrases
• Fronted adverbials
• Similes and metaphors
• Speech dialogue

We very much look forward to completing, drafting and editing our work next week. In Maths, we have been learning strategies for addition and subtraction – in particular, we have focused on the following methods:

• Expanded column
• Number lines
• Number bonds

We also recently enjoyed our STEM day, where me made lots of shoebox biomes for a range of habitats as part of our Science learning, including:

• Deserts
• Jungles
• Oceans
• Caves
• Arctic

We look forward to seeing you all at our virtual parents evening session on Tuesday 8th and Wednesday 9th March.

Best wishes,

Miss Honeywell, Miss Jackson-Nash and Mrs Cairns
