Weekly News 13.02.20

     Hi, we've had a very productive final week before half term. It's been great to finally find out how our class book ends!! It finished with such a good and unexpected twist. This week the children have written diary entries (for Arthur-the main character) and poetry. They also wrote brilliant book reviews. This has been a great book, both classes have loved it and some brilliant writing has come out of enjoying it together.
        In Maths, this week, we have continued to work on fractions; introducing the concepts of Improper fractions and Mixed number fractions.  We have been trying to draw the calculations or use concrete and visual resources as much as possible, as this really helps with their understanding. Will be returning to this topic again.
        In R.E. this week we looked at Sikhism. We learnt about when the religion was founded and about the main beliefs. We also found out about the 5K's-  items or symbols a Sikh wears.
Topic was great this week; making all different types of mountains using paper and cardboard etc.
       All of Key Stage 2 will be doing their 66 times tables and Red Spelling word test this week.
       Have a lovely Half Term.
