Lostock Gralam C of E Primary School
Week Beginning 24.02.20
Date: 12th Feb 2020 @ 1:15pm
Can you believe another half term is over? The children have worked extremely hard yet again and deserve a restful break.
During our first week back after half term, we will be continuing to look at written methods of multiplication and division. In our writing lessons, we will begin by looking at the features of a variety of persuasive information texts. We will then be planning our own texts which will inform people about whales and persuade them to help in the effort to protect them. In our reading lessons will continue to practice the skimming and scanning techniques to retrieve information quickly from the fiction text ‘The New Boy’.
On Wednesday 26th February you are invited to our KS2 Come and Join Us at 2pm which will have a Science focus. We will be identifying why we need a skeleton and exploring the bones that make up the skeletal system.
Our spellings for the test on Friday 28th February will look at words with the ‘sh’ sound spelt ‘ch’:
Chef, chute, machine, brochure, moustache, chandelier Chicago
Please try to read with your child and practice their spellings/times tables where possible over the half term.
Reminders:
Friday 14th February: Please send your child to school with an old t-shirt or shirt (named) for our art day.
Wednesday 26th February: KS2 Come and Join Us – we would love it if you could join us at 2pm for a fun science lesson.
Thursday 27th February: All children will take part in a Disability Awareness Assembly and Workshop.
As always, please pop in to see us if you have any questions or queries.
Have a safe and restful half term.
Miss Beattie and Mrs Esling
