Term 5 week 3

Hello :) 

What a fantastic (but short) week we have had!

Literacy 

In literacy we have continued to look at diary entries. We have looked at our focus text 'Diary of a Worm' and from this, re-written and adapted our own diaries.  We have also continued to look at different spelling rules and how we can apply these when writing independently. 

Maths 

In maths we have finished looking at fractions. Oak Class are able to find fractions of objects, quantities and shapes confidently and can explain how 1/2 and 2/4 are equivalent. 

Afternoons 

In the afternoons we have been busy with Science. We looked at what a plant needs to survive and linked this to our previous learning of the life cycle of a flowering plant. 

In P.E. we have been focusing on badminton. I have been so impressed with Oak Class's ability to hold their rackets correctly and are using great team work to develop their skills in order to play a game! 

Friday 5th May 2023

Today we celebrated the upcoming coronation of King Charles III. It was a lovely day of red, white and blue and the crowns/garden hats were brilliant. We learned about what a coronation is and linked this to our literacy lesson on adjectives where we considered the different emotions that King Charles might be feeling. Oak Class enjoyed their garden party in the afternoon where cakes and drinks were thoroughly enjoyed! 

Have a lovely long weekend and see you on Tuesday 9th May 2023!
