Hi,
This week we have been busy being creative!
Before the half term, we planned and designed parachutes for our science investigation on air resistance. This week, we made and tested our parachutes and recorded our findings.
In English, we have been reading lots of example biographies this week and identifying the features as we prepare to write our own starting next week.
In maths, Miss Bairstow's group have worked brilliantly when learning about square and cube numbers. Mrs Trotter's group have been continuing their work on fractions.
Have a good weekend!
Miss Bairstow :)

Hi,
This week we have been busy publishing our mill themed onomatopoeia poems based on the poem, The Sound Collector, by Rodger McGough. Ash Tree did a great job of highlighting the awful working conditions for children during the Victorian times (something we have also been learning about in topic this week!) and using onomatopoeia in keeping with the original poem. Our final pieces were of an excellent standard and lots of them are now on display around school! Have a look at some of them below.
In maths, Mrs Trotter's group have been ordering and comparing fractions and Miss Bairstow's group have been learning about factors and multiples.
Have a great half term - remember to read lots and complete your book review! There will be house points on offer!
