This is the last full week of school before the man with the sleigh and reindeers comes to visit us. We have had a very busy week with our party, Christmas lunch and Breakfast with Santa for some of us.

Despite all this though we have still managed to work incredibly hard. In maths we completed our work on Data Handling by looking at how to read information from different types of charts. In English we have looked at parenthesis using brackets and written fantastic stories about ‘Sprout Boy’ and in our context for learning ‘The Caribbean Island’ we completed our model islands and investigated how Christmas is celebrated throughout the Caribbean. It was interesting to see how something were the same as us and others were different.

As well as this Mr Cunningham set us a challenges using infinity tiles to test our growth mindset and ability to get out of the ‘Dip’. It was good to see how some pupils have improved their growth mindset and how others still need to take some time and effort to grow their mind when they are faced with a challenge.
