Weekly Update 3.2.23
Posted: Feb 3, 2023 by: Miss Bairstow (d.bairstow) on: Ash Tree Class Blog
Hello,
In English this week we have been using figurative language devices to write rainforest inspired poetry.
In maths, Miss Bairstow's group have been recapping formal methods for multiplication and division and Mrs Trotter's group have been converting fractions into decimals and vice versa.
Earlier in the week, we completed our holocaust memorial flames which we started last Friday on Holocaust Memorial Day. We felt it was important to mark this day as we learnt about WW2 in the Autumn term. Each child in UKS2 completed a flame which we have put together to create a very moving display in school.
Finally, a reminder about our plans for World Book Day which is coming up in March. We recently sent a letter to all parents detailing our plans to hold a decorate a t shirt theme for the first time. Please see below. We kindly ask that all financial contributions are made ASAP to allow us an appropriate length of time to order t shirts and the resources required to decorate them (and of course to give the children chance to decorate them before WBD!). We have received some queries this week regarding sizing for t shirts - please note all children will receive an oversized t shirt as this will give them much more space for their book cover design and ensure every child in school has a suitable t shirt to wear.
Have a good weekend!
Miss Bairstow :)
