Weekly Update 13.5.22
Posted: May 13, 2022 by: K Simms (k.simms) on: Willow Tree Class Blog
Hello everyone,
The children have excelled themselves this week as we have begun some new topics in our learning.
In maths, the children have been practising telling the time to o'clock, half past, quarter past and quarter to and we have begun looking at telling the time in 5 minute increments as well as using Roman numerals.
In English, we have been looking at the amazing discovery of Tutankhamun by Howard Carter and have used this excavation as the basis of our writing focus on diary entries.
In science, the children have continued their learning about forces and magnets and took part in a Scrapyard Challenge to identify magnetic and non-magnetic materials.
Homework will be sent home tonight and is due back in on Wednesday. We now change reading books on a Thursday but please continue to make sure your child brings their reading record in everyday. We have been really impressed with how enthusiastic the children have been to read in school and we hope that this continues, especially with our upcoming trip to Yeadon Library.
Have a lovely weekend,
Miss Simms
