Hello Miss Donotantonio and Y6
Hope you enjoyed your Easter break. I really enjoyed doing the maths today, also the science.
Hi Luca,
I had a lovely Easter break thank you – I hope you and your family did too. Really pleased to hear that you enjoyed yesterday’s maths and science learning; which animals did you choose to write about in the science?
Miss Donatantonio
Hello Miss Donatantonio,
My English and writing book is on to its last page.should I get a piece of paper and write on that.
Kind regards Mikey
Hi Mikey,
Yes that’s not a problem; any paper/notebook is fine. Glad to hear you’ve been filling your book with lots of learning!
