Autumn 1 Week 6

In Science this week, the children worked scientifically to question, group, identify and classify things that were alive, never alive or once alive.  

On Tuesday the children had their first Italian lesson, where they learnt different Italian grretings.

Here is our poem about Diversity, written by the class in our English lessons. The children enjoyed this collaborative writing task.  

Diversity

Rich and poor, black or white;

Discrimination is never right

People are short and people are tall;

But God loves us all

Nobody is the same;

But they can play your game

We can talk in a different way;

Be careful what you say

Some people can’t walk;

And others can’t talk

We are from different places;

And have different faces

Respect is key;

We love diversity.

In Maths, the children have worked hard to reinforce their understanding of think 10. Please watch this video to review this strategy.  https://youtu.be/q9h4skGoWJ8?feature=shared

In our History this week, the children have investigated why Apollo II went to the moon, how the astronauts were selected and how it felt to be part of this space exploration. 

Have a restful weekend
