Well, once again, we have reached the end of another half term.
We have certainly packed alot in in the past 5 weeks.
This week in English we have been writing our own versions of 'Lila and the Secret of the Rain'. We changed the problem to too much rain and so the story became the Secret of the Sun! The children all did an amazing job and tried hard to inlcude all the key parts of the story.
In maths we have continued to recap on arithmetic questions. We have also been recapping on both 2D and 3D shapes.
We have lots of exciting things to look forward to next half term including the Skipping Festival and our trip to the Yorkshire Wildlife Park.
Please remember the Sports Day will be the first Wednesday back so all children need to come to scholl in their PE Kit.
Enjoy your, hopefully, sunny half term.

An unusually cold and wet week in school. Some children have even had hats and gloves on this week at breaktimes.
In English we have continued to use the story of 'Lila and the Secret of Rain' to inspire our writing. The children have created their own story maps and used key vocabulary from the story to orally re-tell the story. Next week we will be planning and writing the story with some slight changes.
In maths we have been focusing on arithmetic and solving number sentences using all 4 operations.
I had the pleasure of teaching the Art this week. We continued our work on sculptures looking at lines and geometric shapes. The children used marshmallows and spaghetti to create their own sculptures using lines and shapes. I was very impressed with their determination and skill. Unfortunately the nature of the materials used meant that the sculptures could not be kept.
Next week is the last one before the end of the half term. This year really is going very fast!
Happy weekend.

I hope you all enjoyed your first May Bank Holiday Weekend. All week it has felt like the wrong day.
This week in English we started a new story called 'Lila and the Secret of Rain'. The children have made predcitions about the story using some of the illustrations. It is nice to have a book that none of the children have read before. We also thought about the main characters thoughts and feelings and write a thought bubble as Lila.
In maths we have continued using the inverse to find missing numbers. We have looked at multiplication and division number sentences.
In DT Mrs Hand worked with the children to create their own 'Family' Sculptures using the boxes that you all so kindly brought in. The children worked in groups to do this.
Enjoy your weekend.
