What we have been learning this week.....
Year 1:
This week in Year 1 we have started a new class text called 'Toys in Space', linking back to our History topic of Living Memory. We read the story and, with our partners, we became a magpie to learn new vocabulary. We have also been consolidating our learning in Maths and have recapped place value, money and time. In Science, we explored seasonal changes and thought about how each season is different to each other. It was fun to compare and see the differences.
Year 2:
We have had a lovely week, resuming our work on Rapunzel and creating our own Enchantress in English, before writing a non-chronological report about her. In Maths, we have been learning about mass, weighing in grams and kilograms. In Art, we created our shields based on our design. On Wednesday, we enjoyed competing in all the different events and racing against our friends on sports day.
Year 3:
This week we have been enjoying our sports day, taking part in lots of different activities, from hammer throwing to sack races. We also helped to score the Upper key Stage 2 event. In RE, we have been focusing on our new unit all about prayer. In English, we have started to read 'Great Expectations' and will be writing our own rags-to-riches story.
Year 4:
On Monday, we had a great time taking part in sports day and cheering on our team members. In English, we have been looking at the letters that we wrote to our future selves back in September and thinking about whether we have reached our goals. In Maths, we have finished the unit on shape and have moved onto position and direction, identifying coordinates and plotting them on a grid. In RE, we researched what roles and responsibilities a priest has and why they are important. On Thursday, we joined One Life Music to sing and pray and on Friday afternoon, we took part in a cricket session from an external coach.
Year 5:
This week we have been studying negative numbers and converting measurements in Maths. In English, we have studied balanced arguments and looked at the pros and cons of homework. Next week we will be writing our final hot task of the year. In RE, we have been learning about Marriage and Holy Orders. In History, we learnt about Norman architecture.
