Lostock Gralam C of E Primary School
Week Beginning 10.02.20
Date: 5th Feb 2020 @ 4:42pm
Welcome back to Robins Class Blog – We have had another super week and the children have worked extremely hard!
As we look ahead to our final week of this half term, we have lots of exciting things coming up. In our writing lessons we will be using drama to help us produce a piece of writing where we will be writing in role as a character from Michael Morpurgo’s ‘This Morning I Met a Whale’. We will also be using a range of non-fiction information texts and the internet to learn more about the human impact on whales and how we can protect them. In maths, we will be looking at a variety of ways we can multiply a 2-digit number by a 1-digit number.
In History, the children will be using the internet to research the achievements of the Iron Age and will then decide which achievement they feel is most important, giving a reason for their choice. In Science, we will be using a Venn Diagram to compare and group animals based on what they eat.
On Friday 14th February, Robins will partake in an art day where we will use clay to construct a pot, replicating Stone Age pottery.
Please send your child to school with an old t-shirt or shirt with their name on it. This can then be kept in school to wear during our art lessons.
Due to our Art Day, Robins spelling test will take place on Thursday 13th February. Our spellings this week will continue to look at words with the ‘c’ sound spelt ‘ch’:
scheme, chord, orchid, chemist, mechanic, technical, stomach, monarch
You should have now received a permission slip for your child to attend our school trip to the Liverpool World Museum on 3rd June 2020. If you have any questions or queries regarding this, please pop in to see me.
