W/C 6.5.24
 
Year 5
It has been another amazing week in Year 5.  We were so proud of the children's behaviour during the 'travel to school' assembly.  They listened well and seemed keen to join in with the activities, including 'blinging' their shoes. 
 
The children have worked hard with their publishing this week - their narrative writing is looking really good! 
 
We have also been collaborating in maths this week, continuing to improve our accuracy with a protractor. 
 
We have begun our year 5 community project this week too, which is litter picking.  We've started within our school grounds, but aim to move out into the local area, helping to keep our environment clean and tidy for everyone. 
 
 
W/C 29.4.24
 
Year 3
It's been another exciting week in year three. In science we were exploring different skeletons. Ask us if we know what an endoskeleton, exoskeleton and hydrostatic skeleton is? During maths lessons we have been learning to use intervals to help us read scales accurately.
 
We are still enjoying our english book The Wild Robot. We can't wait to see where Roz's adventures take her next. This week we have been writing our diary entry from the perspective of Roz. Everybody has worked enthusiastically during P.E. lessons are cricket skills are coming along nicely. 
 
3W were very excited to meet our secret reader this week.
 
Year 5
 
This week we have begun our puberty lessons in PSHE. We were really proud of the children and their mature attitude and sensible questions.   
 
During our Maths lessons this week we have been looking at angles and learning to use a protractor to measure and draw with. 
 
The children have made a great start to their pop up books in DT.  We have had a lovely time making levers, sliders and other pop up book features. We can't wait for you to see them. 
 
Year 6
Several children have kindly been spending some of their spare time creating artwork to go inside the Oak Trees MAT Deforestation scrap book. It looks amazing!
 
During SPAG revision sessions, we have been looking at areas that the children found more challenging, such as, relative pronouns, determiners and punctuating sentences accurately. This has certainly been helping.
 
In Maths, fractions have been our focus this week...adding, subtracting, finding fractions of amounts amongst other areas. It has been so wonderful to see children trying their best and making progress. As well as arithmetic, we have been looking at different types of graphs with the reasoning. Don't forget to check the key if it is a Pictogram! :)
