Weekly Update-4/10/24

Hello everyone,
This week, in maths we have been focusing on column addition, carrying tens, hundreds and thousands. We have also focused on reasoning and problem-solving questions in relation to column addition. The children have been doing absolutely amazing!
In our writing, we have been focusing on describing different aspects of our trip to Murton Park, using five senses, learning about and using coordinating and subordinating conjunctions and planning each paragraph for our piece of writing that is all about the day in the life of a Roman soldier.
In computing, we have been looking at the functions of different digital devices and the benefits of those functions. Part of this lesson involved the children using iPads and a paint programme to create their own digital paining of a volcano erupting. Although there were some challenging parts to it, the children managed to produce some lovely pieces of digital art.
We have also had our class vote for our school council member after all the applicants presented their posters to the class. I am confident that the class member who has been selected will do an excellent job!
Take care,
Mr Kyriacou
