Weekly Update-21/11/24

Hello everyone,
This week, in our writing, we have been focusing on Winter themed similes, sentences with rhyming words in and the use of alliteration. the children have really enjoyed it and come up with some tremendous ideas. they are now very eager to begin planning and rafting their poems.
In maths, we have continued our work on multiplication and division. We have focused on fluency, reasoning and problem solving involving the 3, 6 and 9x tables. It's been lovely to see the children increasing in confidence and this has really been noticed with children who have progressed onto the next level for their times table challenge sheets and with children achieving their highest MTC scores to date.
In history, we have focused on the fall and decline of Roman Britain, which the children found really interesting and it prompted some excellent discussions.
Take care,
Mr Kyriacou :)
