P5’s First Blog Entry

We have enjoyed our holidays but made a busy start to the new term this week!

Maths

Eva – Our new topic is time.

Lewis – We found it tricky at first.

Bella – We have been revising how to tell time using quarter to and past.

Nakeal – I know how to tell the time using quarters much better now.

We have also practised how to tell the time in 5 minute intervals. Next we will work on telling the time to the nearest minute, using am and pm, calendars and the 24 hour clock.

Literacy

We have written some fantastic descriptive pieces using our different senses.

Georgie – I enjoyed writing about my favourite place.

Nicholas – We practised describing in detail.

Music

On Thursdays we have a fantastic music workshop called ‘Move to the Beat’ which the children have been enjoying immensely.

Maia – I like dancing to the music.

Lacey – I like the diddly dum game!

Topic

Our topic is Europe and this week we have continued to work on our Power Points and posters about a chosen European country with a friend.

Art

Liam – I enjoyed the surrealist artwork.

We looked at various pieces of Surrealist artwork including some from Rene Magritte, a Belgian surrealist painter. Then we created our own surrealist work.

Please Note

Next week the children can bring in the homework they have done this month to share with the class.

The children can change the two reading books they have been given when they have finished them.

P.E. is on a Monday and Wednesday – ideally the children should have suitable P.E. kit to change into.

We would also like to invite you to our Learning Breakfast on 7th November (more details to follow next week.)

We have been preparing some 1970s activities to share with you during our 50th birthday celebrations on 8th November. The children will be sharing what they have learnt and seem to be particularly excited about the 70s style dancing they have been practising! They are looking forward to teaching visitors some GROOVY MOVES!
