Friday 4th November, 2022
This week the children have continued with their art work with some impressive results. In RE the children have reviewed their understanding of Advent and spent time this week looking at the Saints linking the examples of their lives to Jesus’ teaching in the Beatitudes. The class went to mass on the Feast of All Saints and Vihaan, Caroline, VJ, Monica and Johanna read beautifully. We started our new French topic on Neighbours and the children were introduced to using the correct form of ‘de’. We have also started our Design and Technology topic on Textiles and the outcome will be creating a mobile phone holder.
NEXT Wednesday (9th November) is our class mass and the theme is Remembrance. Please join us if you are able to. Mass will start at 9:30am.

Wishing you a fabulous weekend.

Home Learning:
Log into your TTRs and ensure you are testing your speed and recall of your tables. Well done to those children who have improved on their personal best time scores…keep this up!!
Log onto SPAG.com and complete the Key Stage 2 SPAG assessment (this may take up to an hour as there are 50 questions). Please do not worry if your child does not know the answer to some of the questions as there will be content that we have not yet covered in Year 6.
Spellings: prejudice, existence, muscle, suggest, identity, accommodate, determined, rhyme, available, competition.
Design and Technology: As a starting activity for our Textile Unit, the children need to record the measurements of a mobile phone as these will be the measurements they use for their holder. (Average phones: 5.8 to 6.2 inches (14.7 to 15.7cm)). Alongside this, please do some research on natural and synthetic fibres. Measurements and research should be brought into school on Tuesday.
