Wow, what a truly incredible week we have had here in Class 5, from musical recitals, and dance performances to computer databasing and multiplying whole numbers by decimals, it really feels like we’ve done it all!

We kicked things off at the start of the week with a wonderful musical performance by Musica who showcased a range of amazing instruments such as: the keyboard, drums and clarinet. They performed a variety of songs for us and have hopefully inspired some budding musicians to pick up an instrument and maybe learn to play themselves too.

In English, we have become agony aunts and uncles, provided advice to a character in one of our books on a range of moral dilemmas he has been facing. I have been really impressed with this writing and seen a noticeable leap forward by so many children in terms of their technical writing ability, well done Class 5!

In Maths we started we week by recapping our knowledge on long multiplication and short division. We then moved on to learning how to multiply a decimal by a whole number. All of these topics can be tricky, but Class 5 tackled them with confidence and determination.

Last but CERTAINLY not least, I would like to say a HUGE, HUGE well done to the amazing children to spent Thursday evening performing a dance (choreographed by our very own Mrs Matthews) at the Lawrence Batley Theatre in front of a massive crowd of parents from all over Kirklees. They performed outstandingly and I thought were so incredibly brave to get up on the stage and do that. WELL DONE! I would also like to say a huge thank you to Mrs Matthews for taking the time to choreograph and put together such a FAB routine. Finally, thank you to all parents that were able to come and show support by watching from the stands. It was a fabulous evening.

Thank you.

I hope you all have a wonderful weekend.

Miss Eastwood
