Another week that has whizzed by in a flash!
In English, this week, we have started our unit of work on Shape Poems. We have been looking at some different shapes poems and talking about how poems are written differently to other pieces of writing. We talked lots about lines of poetry and not sentences. The children worked in pairs to write their own Ocean Themed Shape Poem. They used their purple pens to edit and improve them and then wrote a neat copy. Next week we will be writing some more poems.
In maths we have been solving some puzzle type problems. We have solved puzzles using numicon and digit cards.
The highlight of this week was our visit from 'Prickly Pigs'. This Otley based charity came on Thursday to talk to the children about the work they do with hedgehogs and how the children can help to protect and keep them safe. Thank you to all of you for your generous donations of cat and dog food.
We also had our Make The Rules Day today which the children all enjoyed.
Next week we have our trip to Harlow Carr Gardens. The children have all been given a note today with important information and reminders about this trip. Any questions please come and ask.
I can't believe we only have 3 more weeks left. I am sure they will be very busy ones.
Happy Weekend!

A very hot end to the week!
The highlight of this week was our 'Skipping Festival' on Wednesday at Leeds Trinity University. The children all had an amazing time and skipped their hearts out! We had a few wins too both for individual skips and both group skips. The children all showed great resilience and determination. Most importantly though they all enjoyed themselves. I was very proud of them all!
We have continued our writing, in English, based on the book 'Somebody Swallowed Stanley'. The children have planned and written their own versions of the story creating their own main character. They enjoyed sharing their stories with each other saying what they enjoyed about other's stories.
In maths we have been recapping on 2D and 3D shapes. We have been using mathematical vocabulary to describe their properties.
Next week will see us going into the final 4 weeks of the term and year. We still have lots to do including our next DT project which is to plan and make our own bunting.
Enjoy your sunny weekend.

A fun packed week with Sports Day and more DT Lunchbox Testing!
In English we have continued with the story 'Somebody Swallowed Stanley'. The children have created their own character inspired by a piece of rubbish. Next week they will be planning a different version of the story using their new character.
In maths we have continued our assessments. We have also been recapping on shape and charts and tables.
Sports Day on Wednesday was the highlight of the week. The children all had a great time and I was very impressed with their overall attitude and resilience.
On Wednesday afternoon, Mrs Hand, continued the Lunchbox Testing. Next week the children will be evaluating their designs.
Next week we have our Skipping Festival on Wednesday afternoon. Please make sure that your child comes to school in their PE kit that day. Thank you!
Enjoy your weekend of sunshine and showers.
