Hello everyone,

We hope you are keeping well and safe.

This week, the children have continued to build on writing skills that will help them write a letter to Greta Thunberg, persuading her to continue her work. We began the week by looking at coordinating, subordinating and causal conjuctions, building on climate change sentences. We used these sentences to support our arguement when we were trying to persuade people to use electric cars rather than sport cars. Next week, we will begin to draft and edit our letters!

In Maths, we are finishing our multiplication and division unit by looking at the relationship between related facts, 10/100/1000 times smaller and bigger. Next week, the children will use their knowledge of times and divide to support them in finding amounts of quantities using fractions. We will also be recapping times by solving time and conversion word problems.

A few polite reminders,

• Unfortunately, due to covid we have had to postpone Viking Stem day which would have been held on Friday 25th March. We have now moved this to Friday 29th April 2022, we cannot wait to see all the children dressed as Vikings! Please continue to collect resources for the day such as large plastic bottles, lolly pop sticks, lids along with any other material fit for a long boat!
• Please send your child in their correct PE kit on Monday 28th March.
• Spelling, maths, reading journals and vocabulary homework is due Friday 1st April 2022.

We hope you all have a wonderful weekend,

Miss Jackson-Nash, Miss Honeywell, Mrs Cairns and Miss Ranson
