Term 6, Week 3
What a fantastic week we've had at school, despite the heat!
The children have been buzzing with excitement, especially in English, where we've had a fun time with rhyming poems. This week, we explored the joy of rhyme before moving on to our wordless book, 'Flotsam’. We really got into the beautiful pictures and children created their very own rhyming poems inspired by the story. It’s amazing to see their imaginations come to life!
In Maths, Year 5 have been getting to grips with decimal numbers, learning how to multiply and divide them by 10, 100, and 1,000. Year 6 has also been busy diving into 'Oliver!', and they can’t wait to show their parents all the exciting things they’ve been working on.
This week in Science, we’ve been chatting about healthy lifestyles and encouraging each other to make good choices. It’s great to see them thinking about their health!
In Computing, we’ve started discussing copyright and how it will affect our website project. It’s such an important topic as we move in to building our websites.
In PE, we’re still loving our athletics and handball sessions—the kids can’t get enough of it! We are practising our running ready for Sports Day. Plus, we began exploring music from different cultures, which has been a lovely addition to our lessons.
