Toucans week ending the 23rd October

Date: 22nd Oct 2020 @ 3:40pm

We hope the children all have a lovely rest over half term as they have worked hard over the past 8 weeks.

In Maths we will be looking at the properties of numbers and will begin our coverage of fractions.  

In English we will be focusing on developing our reading skills through answering questions relating to inference.  

In RE we will start our new topic on Christian Community. We will look at how Christians worship and how they come together as part of a community.  

In Science, we will continue with our topic Light exploring sources and how light travels.

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. Mr Ault will also be running an after school club for Year 6s after school on a Friday.

Topic – Conflict

After half term, we will begin to investigate our History and Geography topic – Conflicts. We will start by finding out more about the Battle of Hastings and then look at World War 1 and 2.

Wishing everyone a lovely half term, best wishes from

Mrs Whittingham, Mrs Downing and Mr Beswick
