A super week for these children!
We have enjoyed listening to ‘Power Ballads’ all week – a lot of confusion occurred around the name of Meatloaf though! Miss Sanderson and I enjoyed a trip down Memory Lane when listening to Seal on Thursday!
In Maths, we have moved from calculating the perimeter of shapes to calculating their area. This week’s homework is on the concept of perimeter, so any adult support would be gratefully received, I am sure. On the whole, the children have become very responsible about completing and handing in homework on time – this is a really great way to be prepared for life further up the school.
In English, our leaflets about Rufford Park are coming along nicely – it is interesting to hear how focused the children are on their ‘audience’ for this piece of work. This has been very motivating for them. I think our prospective parents are in for a treat! In our Grammar lesson, we tried to get to grips with using commas to help keep the writing clear. There was much hilarity at: Let’s eat Grandma and At the weekend, Mrs Amos enjoys baking her children and her cat.
(Commas, it seems, can save lives…)
Have a lovely Bank Holiday weekend!
See you back here on Tuesday.
Yours,
Mrs Adrienne Amos
