Remembrance Day - 11.11.16

Hello,


A huge well done for your fantastic sharing assembly this morning!


Today is Remembrance Day and we had a 2 minute silence at 11 O'clock. We've been learning about why we have Remembrance Day in Topic this week. Thank you to Caeden and Liam who have been visiting all of the classes and selling poppies at school all week.


It is also World Kindness Day on Sunday. We discussed how we can show kindness to one another and agreed that this should be done everyday.



In Maths, we have been learning about fractions. A fraction is a part of a whole - we know that all parts must be equal. We have been shading in halves, quarters and thirds of shapes and also applying this to quantities. Can you recall halves of numbers to 20? You may want to continue to challenge yourself to do this at home.


In English, we have begun looking at non-chronological reports. We have been researching nocturnal animals ready to write our own report next week. Today we made some fantastic posters about Badgers and Mrs Stewart and I were so proud of how you all worked collaboratively with your partners. You even earned a marble for it!


Nat has taken home Night this weekend for continuing his learning at home. Well done to Akeem for getting the Star Award for helping his friends in the classroom.


Enjoy your weekend!
