Reception
This week in
Reception, our topic has been Elmer. We have had a very creative week…
Elmer is a very colourful elephant and we have used paint, sticking and
colouring pencils to recreate our own Elmers.
The children have
used the song “Two little Dicky Birds” in Maths this week. They have
enjoyed singing the song and doing the actions to help them with their number
work.
Thank
you for all the homework and Wow stars we have received this week!

Year 4
This week the year
4 children have continued work on Stig of the Dump in English. They have worked
hard creating WOW word banks and writing fantastic descriptions of Stig. In Maths, year 4 are continuing work on Place
Value, specifically finding between numbers. We have created so great work for
our working walls.
Please ensure you
are continue to read with your child for 10 minutes every day and record it in
their reading diaries.
Year 5
Year 5 have had a
fun week. We have been outside learning whatever the weather, some of us were
lucky enough to see a caterpillar making its cocoon! Maths has been fun and
lots of us are really enjoying the practical learning, especially when we
worked on decimal places by logging our running times to 2 decimal places.
Our websites are
coming along really nicely we have learnt lots about how children in Victorian
times had to work long hours. We will be experiencing this for ourselves in our
own coal mine next week. Wait for our next blog to see how we found the
experience.
Year 6
It’s been another
hard working week for Year 6! We’re beginning to realise it’s time to pull our
socks up and get ready for SATs and Year 7!
In Maths we have
had fun using decimal numbers for measures. We had a great time taking Nando’s
orders from a menu and calculating total amounts and change. Although it did
make us all feel very hungry!
English has been
very exciting this week- we have started exploring the magical world of
dragons! We have watched and created our own news reports, designed and described
our own dragons and have begun to plan a non-chronological report about them.
Mrs Reynolds, Miss Niemann and Mrs Blatcher are very much looking forward to
some fantastic work being written next week!
Meanwhile, we have
continued reading Goodnight Mr Tom. Alongside that we have been learning about
and reflecting on evacuation and how it affected the lives of so many. 6N wrote
some wonderful diary entries, which demonstrated how much empathy they had for
the children that experienced being evacuated during World War Two.
We hope to share
some of our brilliant work with you soon.
Until next time!
