Our Learning This Week

Welcome back everyone!

I have updated our class information page with our topics for this half-term. The children have all received new spellings today for the test next Friday and Year 2 homework has been set on Purple Mash.
In English this week, we have been researching tigers. We have then planned and started writing an information text all about them.

In Maths this week, we have been learning about fractions. We have been recognising and finding half of a shape or a quantity. Next week, we will be looking at quarters and the Year 2s will also look at finding thirds.

D.T: Making a sliding mechanism. P.E: Using a racket.

Poetry Competition

We are so proud of all our children who have learnt a poem for their homework and recited them to their classes. It is wonderful hearing such a variety of poems and poets – some children have even written their own poem. Today the teachers and TAs had a very difficult job picking out the ten finalists from KS1 and KS2 to go forward for the poetry competition on Tuesday. All semi- finalists were fabulous and had clearly been practising their poem as they were so polished. Well done all and thank you for supporting your children

We are looking forward to the finals on Tuesday when we will hear the ten finalists from EYFS/KS1 and the ten finalists from KS2. The children who are involved have taken a letter home to invite their relatives to the recital.

Our Learning This Week

It has been another busy week in Yellow. We have celebrated British Science Week by playing ‘The Masked Scientist’ and learning about some famous inventors from the past and present. We are currently finishing our entries for the official competition and will let you know how we get on.


In English, we have been writing instructions for catching an imaginary creature. We have been inspired by the book ‘Shh’, We Have  A Plan!’ by Chris Haughton. In Maths, we have been learning to measure temperature and mass.
