Thursday in Year 3/4

Leave a comment

Year 3/4 are working on a variety of subjects this morning!

Base 3 have been doing Maths. They have been learning about partitioning and making exchanges.

The are learning that a number can be partitioned into smaller parts, finding out how partitioning can help their calculations and they are practicing exchanging ones for tens, tens for hundreds and hundreds for thousands.

Base 6 were doing literacy when I stopped by and are learning about paragraphs. There were some interesting discussions going on about where writing needs a new paragraph and why.

Ask your children if they can tell you about the 3 T’s! (Time and place, Topic, Talking)

Base 5 are doing music. We learn music with the help of the School Arts Trust (which some of you will know as TACT). Today one of their staff is in and children across the school will have a lesson at some point today – the children in Base 5 were really enjoying it!

Welcome Back!

For the last few months, we have been using the school blogs to keep the children in touch with school and to let us know what they have been up to on lockdown or in school if they were able to return in June. We loved seeing everything the children were doing. It was great to keep up with the work the children were doing as well as seeing the fun they were having outdoors and in the kitchen (lots of lovely baking going on!) But most importantly, we hope it gave the children and the staff a continued link with school.

The last few weeks have been busy with new arrangements for opening school and the children have settled in well and are getting used to all the new arrangements.

Starting this week, we plan to start using the blogs again to keep up with what is going on in the classrooms and show you some of the learning that is taking place across the school.

Watch this space!

Welcome to Reception September 2020

We were able to have a few of our Reception Starters to visit two at a time last week.

Not everyone was able to come, but we hope that you will share this with your children so that they know a few faces when they start with us.

The boy at the end without a boy is named Jacob!

Thank you everyone and look forward to seeing you all again in September!
