Through their maths learning, Explorers Class have been learning about different ways to make 8 using loose parts, beads and Numicon.

In their English, they have used role-play to act out the class story centred around deforestation.

What a term it has been! Year 3 have made so much progress this term and we are extremely proud of all their efforts.

In our maths, we have explored multiplication and division through concrete and pictorial representations, along with some word problems related to these two operations. In our writing, we have developed our written poetry aspects in our final pieces based on the core text, ‘Congo Square’. This links into our History on the origins of slavery and our texts in Whole Class Reading.

Thank you to all the parents that came in to read with us on the final week. It was so enjoyable!

This week, Year 4 have been showing positivity, perseverance and collaboration when completing their Art and English outcomes.

For their English, Year 4 wrote a newspaper article to inform the audience of the discrimination Matthew Henson faced when attempting to explore the artic. To complete their art, they recreated a piece on the Northern Lights and used a range of mediums such as chalk and crayons in order to do so.

This week, Year 6 have worked incredibly hard to publish their Art and English outcomes.

Their newspaper writing has centred around a racist incident in the story of 'Stella by Starlight'. In addition to this, Year 6 have produced some masterpieces inspired by Sam Cannon.
