Sports Day
We are very proud of all the children for how they behaved and performed on sports day on Tuesday. Thankfully the rain held off and they were able to compete in all the planned races. Well done to Yellow House for winning overall. Well done too to all those parents who joined in with the racing. What a competitive bunch you are!
Our learning this week:
Maths: This week, time has been our focus. The children have been converting analogue time to digital times and 12-hour digital times to 24-hour digital times. It would really help with their learning if you are able to follow this up at home.
English: This week, having read more of the story, the children have working out when to use apostrophes for possession for both singular and plural nouns, have used conjunctions to make comparisons and written a poem using antonyms. They have also been learning all about Standard English and when to use it.
Science
The children were excited and appalled to discover the results of our science experiment from last week. Why not ask them about it?
Geography
Continuing with our learning about the Amazon, the children researched the animals found in the 4 layers of the rainforest as well as those found in the amazon River itself to produce a non-chronological report about them.
Homework:
Maths: Please complete the assigned sessions of Times Table Rockstars that have been set. You can log in at this link https://play.ttrockstars.com/auth/school. The children should be completing 15 minutes per week. This will be 5 minutes in the Soundcheck area and 10 minutes in the Garage.
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: Please complete 8 games on Spelling Shed. www.edshed.com
Have a great weekend!
Mr Seldon and Mrs Loudwill
