Good afternoon everyone!
We've had a super week this week! As I mentioned earlier in the week, we have been working on poetry this week. We have been really proud of the children's poetry; they have really embraced all the characteristics we have discussed in class with great enthusiasm. We have also begun reading 'The Dancing Bear', a lovely book of Michael Morpurgo's. The children have loved creating their own versions of the setting for the story.
The 'Richard Symonds' animal artwork the children have completed this week have been equally wonderful!
Science today has been fun; not only have the children worked on 'Dental Hygiene' posters, they have also prepared an investigation to determine which drinks have the most detrimental effects on our teeth; is it fresh orange, cola or something else? We will need to wait a week to see if our predications are correct!
Maths has been a tricky one this week; we've been focusing on angles and identifying different triangles and quadrilaterals. I think we will be revisiting 'quadrilaterals' again on Monday so any practise at home would be really helpful!!
The children are loving geography at the moment; they have been confidently labelling the 'Tropic of Cancer' and 'Capricorn', as well as the two hemispheres and the equator and taking note of the countries the equator crosses and the resulting temperature differences. It's amazing how much the children are grasping and so quickly too!
We hope you have a wonderful weekend and look forwards to seeing you all again on Monday!
