Overview
Happy New Year!
This week we had our first trip to the library of the term. We made cakes and then wrote a set of instructions on how to make them.
Our topic focus is topical science and we have been learning about plastic in the ocean.
In Maths we have started learning about money. This week we revised the coins and discussed what the different coins looked like and what their value was. We also ordered the coins from 1p to £2. Next week we are going to start working on how much activities.
Drama was fun as we were learning about ‘tableau’, this is like a still image. We all worked in teams, chose a scenario and then made a ‘photograph’ of it. We then had to guess each others tableau. You can see these on Twitter.

We made a poster with what we will do more and less of for 2020 and here are some of our ideas:
-More writing on whiteboards
-More excellent listening
-More kindness
-More netbook activities
-Less shouting out
-Less saying ‘I can’t do it’
It was great being back with you all in class on Monday. Drama was great fun, I was really impressed with all of your ‘photographs’. You all worked really well on your tasks with a positive mindset!
Thanks for the update. Connor and Liam thoroughly enjoyed drama and making cakes. They are liking the new topic.
