Well done to these superstars from Oak Class!
Reader of the Week: Isabella
Special mention Pupil: Archie
Reading Ambassador: Oliver
Our week has been accompanied by Male Music Legends, during our Early Bird Maths tasks. It is true to say that Michael Jackson was the firm favourite. We haven’t had the same sort of excitement in our sessions as last week, but we have still enjoyed our learning hugely in Oak Tree Class!
Our maths unit on Statistics has been a real winner for this set of children – they have loved working on tables and charts and timetables. I was very happy to see them cope with the tasks and activities they were all set and good progress was made. In English, we have been continuing to write a creative response to Darwin’s Dragons. Clearly the children are enjoying this book, according to their excellent book reviews on Thursday. We shall finish these in the first week back after our break.
We finished our Athletics sessions in PE, by working alongside our Y3 pupils – it was a treat for Miss Sims and me to witness the collaborative learning that was taking place for the hour. (And the weather was lovely, so it was a double pleasure!)
Homework this week is a little bit different. ALL children will bring home spellings, but for some children, who I feel still need a bit of a reminder or a boost in their arithmetic skills, I am sending home a set of calculations for them to work through. (It has been quite a while since we have done multiplication and division, so these are timely reminders before the move up to Y6. Thank you for your support in these tasks.)
I hope you all have a lovely half term week planned.
Yours,
Mrs Adrienne Amos
