Summer 2 Week 4

In Maths, the children have been practising telling the me. We have focused on how many minutes to the next hour. Telling the time is an important skill for children to learn so please practise telling the time at home.

In English, we have been looking at adverts and identifying the different types of language they use to persuade people to buy their product. We have looked at how adverts make you feel and how these feelings help to persuade you to buy or do something.

On Wednesday, we had sports day. The children were fantastic and demonstrated excellent teamwork skills. It was lovely to see so many parents supporting their children. Well done to St Louise who were the overall winners.

In Science, we have been learning about the function of leaves. The children were asked “Do leaves evaporate water?” Then they discussed and planned how they would find out the answer to the question. They decided to put a plastic bag around a leaf and observe whether the bag collects water. We also planted sweetcorn and watered the gardens.

In Religion, the children have been excited to tell the class about their research about Nelson Mandela that they did at home. Then we discussed how his beliefs in God would have impacted on what he did. Then we thought about how we could be like Nelson Mandela.

Home Learning

Have a wonderful weekend.
