Weekly Update 4.2.2023
Posted: Feb 3, 2023 by: K Atkinson (k.atkinson) on: Pear Tree Class Blog
We have had a slightly sad end to the week in Pear Tree Class as today was Miss Peacock's last day at Rufford Park Primary School. The staff and children are all going to miss her but wish her lots of luck for her new job as a teaching assistant in a school a bit closer to home.
In other news, in art the children created watercolour wash backgrounds, in the style of Paul Klee, and experimented with line drawing to create their own portraits. Take a look at our display, showcasing this wonderful work:
We reflected on our paramedic visit that happened last week and discussed whether we think paramedics are real life superheroes (all the children agreed that they definitely are!)
In English, we continued to write about our new class book 'Supertato'. The children used key vocabulary from the story to write their own sentences. A lot of children challenged themselves to use a range of punctuation including question marks and exclamation marks.
In maths we have started to learn about division and have completed a lot of practical work when learning how to share equally between groups.
Just a reminder that next Wednesday (8th February 2023) is our Superhero Day where we celebrate all our topic learning of the half term. All the children are invited to come to school dressed as a superhero of their choice. I look forward to seeing their costumes!
Have a lovely weekend and I will see you again on Monday for the last week of the half term!
