Hi,
This week we have been busy publishing our mill themed onomatopoeia poems based on the poem, The Sound Collector, by Rodger McGough. Ash Tree did a great job of highlighting the awful working conditions for children during the Victorian times (something we have also been learning about in topic this week!) and using onomatopoeia in keeping with the original poem. Our final pieces were of an excellent standard and lots of them are now on display around school! Have a look at some of them below.
In maths, Mrs Trotter's group have been ordering and comparing fractions and Miss Bairstow's group have been learning about factors and multiples.
Have a great half term - remember to read lots and complete your book review! There will be house points on offer!

In English, we have started to write some onomatopoeia poetry linked to Armley Mills.
In maths, Miss Bairstow's group have been learning about methods for multiplication and division and finding multiples. Mrs Trotter's group have been learning about fractions.
See you next week!

Hi,
We have had another good week in Ash Tree.
I have been so impressed with the care the children have taken when writing out their Victorian diary entries. We are looking forward to displaying some of these on our corridor display for everyone to see - look out for them at Parents' Evening!
In maths, Miss Bairstow's group have been continuing their work on addition and subtraction whilst Mrs Trotter's group have been working on BIDMAS.
We also had creative PSHE and Topic lessons this week and worked well both in pairs and independently to create posters about how to be assertive in PSHE and about life in Victorian Britain in History.
Have a look at some of PSHE posters below:
Have a great long weekend!
Miss Bairstow :)
