Welcome back after the half term holiday!
Oak Tree Class seems to have hit the ground running this past week, continuing with excellent work on writing non-chronological reports as if we have had no break! The children’s reports (our exciting double-page spreads!) are shaping up nicely and I am really looking forward to them being completed next week. Hopefully, we shall have the published pieces displayed in school soon and you should be able to pop in and see them for yourselves. The children have been really proud of their efforts.
In Maths, we have been looking at factors and multiples (including common factors and common multiples) and although these are quite tricky concepts to grasp, the children have been managing very well – some pupils have really impressed me by reaching the extensions in lessons.
We started an energetic badminton unit in PE. It was lovely to see so many children achieving the key objective AND having fun.
A geography lesson seems to have been our ‘biggest hit’ this past week, as it gave the children the opportunity to use the atlases. Much hard work could be seen as we looked at the many countries that were involved in WW2. Well done to those families who have managed to bake from the WW2 Ration Book. Your photos are fab!
Blues music has filled the air each morning; I am looking forward to hearing some (carefully chosen!) punk music next week!
Have a lovely weekend,
Mrs Adrienne Amos
