Hello,
It's been another busy and productive week. We are continuing to read our Roman mystery book, The Thieves of Ostia. We are on chapter 13 and the children are absolutely loving it. The children are also continuing to sharpen up a variety of their reading skills, particularly their inference skills, and it's fantastic to see how far they have progressed since September.
We've had a busy writing week. The children have been working incredibly hard on their adventure stories and produced some really exciting pieces of work. They will be editing them next week before publishing their final pieces. Well done for all of your hard work!
In maths, we have been focusing on estimating (using rounding) for addition and subtraction, as well as using a variety of strategies to check our addition and subtraction calculations.
Take care,
Mr Kyriacou
