Week ending the 4th December
Another busy week putting the final touches to our Virtual play. The children have been fabulous, making props, learning lines, signing songs etc. We are so looking forward to sharing it with you soon…
Homework
Thank you for supporting your child with their homework this week.
Remember they can mark their Maths work themselves at home (answers are in the back of the books). However, we would still like them to bring in their books every Thursday to check that they have done the homework and if they need any help with particular questions, Mr Beswick will be able to work with them before we return the books to the children on the Friday.
Maths Homework
Pages 34 and 35 Ading and Subtracting Fractions due in on Thursday 10th December
Spellings to be tested on Friday 11th December
SUFFIXES
Happily, copier, applied, mysterious, spying, busier, heavily, trying, beautiful, happiness
Curriculum
In Maths we are continuing our work on Fractions by multiplying fractions and solving fraction problems
In English we are continuing with our new writing unit based on the book Star of Fear, Star of Hope, which links nicely with our Conflict topic as well.
In RE we will be exploring what makes a Christian Community.
In Science, we will continue with our topic Light exploring sources and how light travels.
In Geography, we will be looking at where conflicts took place around the world
In History, we are finding out about the life of children during World War 1.
Home Reading
Thank you to everyone who has been reading at home. We have had lots of diaries signed and consequently the children have been receiving their first raffle tickets for our reading draw.
We have been enjoying quiet reading time in class this week so the children have the opportunity to immerse themselves in their new books.
Our PE day is Friday so please send your child to school wearing their PE kit on that day.
Kind regards,
Mrs Whittingham, Mrs Downing and Mr Beswick
