We’ve had a fantastic first week back and quickly settled into the rhythm of school life. Here’s a snapshot of what we’ve been up to:
English
This week in English, we’ve been diving into poetry! We’ve explored various poetic features and experimented with creative approaches like blackout poetry and free-verse writing. We are excited to showcase our skills during Matt Goodfellow’s visit next week.
Maths
In Maths, we’ve been focusing on fractions, particularly equivalent fractions and simplifying them. If you’d like to go over the learning from this week, you can find resources: Sp1W1 Equivalent and Simplifying Fractions
Project: World War I
Our new project for this term is World War I. This week, we explored the causes of the war, and it was wonderful to see everyone so engaged and curious right from the start.
Guided Reading
We’ve started our new book, The Final Year by Matt Goodfellow. If you haven’t purchased a copy yet, please refer to the email from Mr. Drane for more details.
