This week was extremely busy and the children have been amazing! On Wednesday, we were lucky enough to have a visit from our Mayor, Chris Cooke, who came to talk about his job and the roles and responsibilities he has while looking after our town. The children had many amazing questions which were really thoughtful and the mayor replied with very inspiring responses.
In maths we began to look at multiples and factors and how we can use our knowledge of times tables to answer questions on both. We also looked at identifying common multiples and factors of multiple numbers. We encourage the children to use TTRS to increase their understanding of the times tables, they should be accessing it for at least 15 minutes as part of their homework 🙂
In PVPG this week we looked further into building single-clause sentences and that ‘a full independent clause has a subject and a verb so we put a full stop at the end and go back to add a capital letter’. The children have been very enthused with their PVPG lessons and we hope the skills they have learnt are applied in their written work.
On Thursday, we had a zoom call with Frank Cottrell-Boyce who read from his new book The Blockbusters! The children really enjoyed hearing a small snippet from the story! We also enjoyed spending some time exploring different stories in the afternoon 🙂
Our Pupils of the Week this week were Grace and Elissia for their amazing enthusiasm towards learning, their kind and encouraging words and being lovely friends to their peers. Well done girls, we are very proud, keep it up! 🙂
Happy Birthday to George this week, we hope you had a wonderful time celebrating! 🙂
