Well this week has certainly gone in a flash!
The highlight of the week has been the VE Day Celebrations on Thursday. The children enjoyed singing some traditional songs and dressing in their red, white and blue colours.
In maths we have been using the 'inverse' to find missing numbers. These problems have included all 4 operations.
We have continued to use the story of 'The Pirates Next Door' in our writing. This week we have been thinking about why the people of Dull-On-Sea wanted the Pirate Family to go. Next week we will be writing letters to the council telling them why this family need to leave the town.
This week the children have started to design their lunchboxes for the pirates to use. Please remember to send in any other resources your child might want to use.
A reminder to please listen to your children read at home. Regular reading is so important! Your help with this is much appreciated.
Have a fabulous weekend!

What a beautiful sunny week it has been!
This week in English the children have continued to be inspired by the story 'The Pirates Next Door'. They have been using drama to act our and sequence the story. They have also used this to help them to plan and write a recount as one of the main characters, Matilda.
In Maths we have continued our work on Position and Direction. The children have been thinking about turns and movement. Any work at home linked with reinforcing left and right and clockwise and anti-clockwise would be much appreciated.
Linked with Pirates, we have been looking at our Pirate Lunchbox issue in DT. This week we have been evaluating different lunchboxes. This will help the children when we get to the design part where they will need to design their own lunchboxes for the Pirates. Thank you to those who have sent in boxes for this work. There is still plenty of time left to do this.
The children should all have taken home a letter about our summer trip to 'Harlow Carr Gardens'. Please check your child's book- bag and return the permission slip as soon as possible.
Enjoy your longer, and hopefully sunny, weekend.

The week started off with some great entries for the 'Book in a Box' Competition. Well done to Emily and Frankie.
We also had our 'Explorers' Day on Wednesday. This was to launch both our Topic (Message in a Bottle) and English. The children all made such a great effort with their costumes and had a great day too. The highlight being the outdoor Scavenger Hunt.
Our Scavenger Hunt also linked well to our Maths for this half term (Position and Direction).
The week has really whizzed by!
Enjoy your weekend.
