What a great start of the week we had, we all went to Rand Farm Park for our OUTSTANDING OFSTED report earlier in the year. We were really lucky to bottle feed the lambs, pet the animals - both small and large, learnt about the hatchery, did some archery and had a tractor ride. What a fabulous day we had.
In English, we have been reading a model text of a diary entry and plotting the correct shapes alongside it and then we had an experience day, we understood what London was like in 1666.
In Maths, we have been looking at edges on 3D shapes. We looked at a range of 3D shapes and had to count the edges carefully.
In History, we have been learning about people of colour and how life have changed. We talked about how Rosa Parks stood up for herself and alongside Martin Luther King Jr who also stood up for African Americans, he encouraged the boycott of the buses for 385 to help change this law on the buses. We thoroughly enjoyed this topic.
On Wednesday, we had Art with Mrs Freeman and PE with Mr Godson.
Thursday & Friday - Miss Cragg
We've continued to learn about 3D shapes at the end of the week, counting vertices and making patterns with 2D and 3D shapes. We're starting a new module next week which will be exciting! In English we have carried on with our new book about The Great Fire of London. We had the opportunity to listen to the whole book and then put the events of the fire into the correct order and draw a comic strip. We then worked on suffixes and superlatives in our sentence stacking lesson!
In Science we made sand castles thinking about the perfect ratio of sand to water. In RE we ended our Islam unit by learning about Muslim funerals. A spelling and multiplication test ended our week. Have a great weekend everyone!

A great start to the new term. We got straight back into our English writing by writing our own snippet of the story based on 'How to train your dragon'. We have done such a good job!
In Maths, we have continued with shape. We have looked at lines of symmetry. We had to draw the other side of the shape accurately to make sure it was exactly the same on both sides.
In History, we started our new unit 'How has women in society changed over time?' We looked at how women were treated in the early 20th century and compared it to the present day. We discussed how different it was for women; being at home, cleaning, cooking, looking after the children etc and the lack of equal rights women had and how powerful groups 'Suffragettes' and 'Suffragists' helped changed how women are looked at today.
On Wednesday, we had Art with Mrs Freeman and PE with Mr Godson.
