Friday 29th November

Happy Friday!

A week of fairy tales, Multiples and Tag rugby!

This week, we have been working on our English text The Sleeper and the Spindle. We have explored homophones and the themes that run through the beginning of the story. We have also written in role as the Queen to be.
Maths has seen us working on multiples of numbers. We have explored multiples of 3 and 6 and what common multiples are.  we have used the language: Product Multiples, Quotient, Array, Divisor and have made generalisations about what we have noticed in the tables that we have explored.
In Science we explored how sedimentary rocks are formed and how a fossil is created. P.E has seen us developing our Tag Rugby skills, we have worked on passing and intercepting this week.

Next week, sees us continuing to read and write, using our text The Sleeper and the Spindle as inspiration. We continue to explore Multiplication and Division in Maths and will explore Metamorphic Rocks in Science. We'll also continue work on Informal settlements in Geography and work on our Rugby skills, moving more into game situations next week. 

P.E. will be on Thursday and Friday for this half term until Christmas, so please send the children in with their kits on these days. 
Finally, the children will come home with their homework books on Monday (due to the snow day). In these there are spellings for this week, Maths questions based on what we have been doing in class and a topic homework with a choice of activities. Please could the book come back in on Thursday next week for marking and so that the children can add next week's home learning. So far this term, the response to home learning has been very positive and it really does help to reinforce the learning that the children undertake during the school day. New topic home learning is in there, as well as on Class Dojo.


Have a great weekend everybody, see you on Monday.
