Week 5: 2nd February
This week, the children have been editing their narrative writing and have been fabulous editors in ensuring that they have looked at their sentences to see how they can improve them further. Well done to each of them in working so hard to apply such an important skill.
On Tuesday, the class went over to Dame Alice Owen’s school to take part in the local Speed Stacking Tournament. They were proud to represent the school and have been practicing hard in the lead up to the big day. Overall they came second. Well done Year 4 – great work!
In ICT the children have been looking at writing instructions using simple algorithms. To assist them with this, they used the virtual bee bots on the Ipad.
In Maths the children have continued with their work on decimals and converting minutes to hours and hours to minutes.
This afternoon the children continued with their wonderful environmental art structures using willow.
Luca and Evie were particularly proud of their twists and weaving techniques using the willow.
As part of Other Faith Week, we will be having a class trip with Year 3 to the synagogue on Monday morning. Thank you to the parents who are able to assist us with this visit.
Have a lovely weekend.
