English: Continuing our walk through London, the children have found out all about the Tower of London, The Monument and The Bank of England. They were amazed to hear there was so much gold stored there! From this, the children produced a postcard written in the past and present tense outlining their trip to London and recounting facts about the different landmarks you can see there. Thank you to those children who did the optional homework last week, it was fascinating to find out what you had researched.

Maths: The children have continued their learning on time. They recapped o’clock, half, quarter past and quarter to times. They also learnt more about the ‘past’ and ‘to’ sides of the clock as well as learning times to 5 minutes.

Topic: During their Cornish History learning, the children learnt about significant Cornish individuals and why they were important. These were Goldsworthy Gurney, Richard Lander, Richard Trevithick, Daphne Du Maurier and Emily Hophouse. In science, the children carried on their food chain learning by looking at food webs and how lots of animals rely on each other to keep these webs going.

In art, the children practised some weaving on the playground fence in preparation for the start of their weaving next week. We are looking for volunteers to help us with this next Wednesday afternoon. If you can help, contact your child’s teacher.

Homework:

Maths – Please complete the assigned three 3-minute sessions of Times Table Rockstars that have been set. You can log in at this link https://play.ttrockstars.com/auth/school using your child’s Numbots’ username and password.

Reading – Please read five times a week at home. Reading completed in school does not count towards the five times. Please remember to send in reading books with your child every day.

Spellings (children on Read, Write Inc): Your child has been set 3 games to play on Spelling Shed. Please login to their assignment in EdShed. Alternatively, your child may prefer to continue with the Little Birds game to practise their common exception word spellings.
