Weekly Update 28.5.21
Posted: May 25, 2021 by: Mrs Trotter (l.trotter) on: Maple Tree Class Blog 2020/2021
Hi everyone,
An end to a busy week and half-term in Maple Tree Class; lots of creative and academic activities taking place.
In RE, everyone has enjoyed learning about Rangoli art and completed some very detailed colouring, resulting in some beautiful pieces of work (see below). In maths, we completed our unit on statistics by learning the vocabulary associated with circles and learned how to interpret Pie charts. We are hoping to complete our own Year 6 Pie chart soon when we decide which colour to choose for our Leavers' Hoodies.
We have completed a few assessments in reading and maths. There was a noticeable focus when these were taking place. Everyone really wanted to do their best in this penultimate half term, before they complete their time at primary school.
We are also beginning to make preparations to begin rehearsals for our end of year production which we hope parents and carers will be able to attend. There will be lots to do after the holidays so don't be surprised if you hear lots of singing of the songs at home.
Transition to secondary school plans are also beginning to take place and I met (virtually) with staff from Guiseley School this week. I will be meeting with staff from Benton Park after the half-term holidays.
To complete the week, The Make the Rules Day today caused great excitement; the children certainly enjoyed the change to their normal routine.
Enjoy the half-term holidays!
Mrs Trotter
