Weekly Blog - 10.1.25

Welcome to the first blog of 2025 and happy new year.
It has been a slightly bizarre week this week with inset day on Monday and snow on Wednesday and ice on Thursday.
This week we have started our new book in English – The Wind in the Wall which is a gothic horror novel. On Tuesday we spent time making predictions of the story using the front cover. We have since started reading the story and have focused on the figurative language in the story.
In maths we have started our new unit of decimals recapping our knowledge on place value with numbers with multiple decimal places. We will continue with this next week.
We have started our new computing unit on Thursday of programming in games. We have been working on our skills in scratch and they are all definitely a lot more skilled with scratch then me!
Today we have started our art unit by focusing on the artist of David Hockney and exploring his artwork.
Next week we have our next round of mock SATS so we will be busy completing those and making ourselves more confident with the test and the format.
Have a lovely weekend 😊
