It has been another tremendous week in 4DA! Everyone has settled back into the school routine brilliantly which has led to a collaborative and enthusiastic learning environment. 

The children have been working hard in many different subject areas this week. In our Maths lessons, they have been focussing on making thousands up to 10,000. We have also moved our focus onto story writing in our English sessions with a focus on a tense warning tail. The children also had a toothy introduction to the digestive system in science, which is our topic for this half term. But I have to say the most pleasing hour of the week has to be our PE lesson. The children showed outstanding collaboration skills during big class games of Capture the Flag – along with being heavily self-organised in their teams, they also showcased great togetherness through brilliant communication and encouragement – it was a joy to be a part of! 

I hope everyone has a great weekend!

We have had a fantastic first week in 4DA! I have really enjoyed getting to know everyone and getting ourselves back into our daily routines. 

The children have been working incredibly hard in many different subject areas. In our English sessions, we have been learning ‘The Book’ by Michael Rosen. I have been blow away by the children’s enthusiasm and ability to learn the poem so quickly. Within our Maths learning we have been looking at place value by using base ten to create 3-digit numbers.  

A couple of key things for next week: P.E. will take place on Thursdays so the children will be able to come into school wearing their P.E. kits. Reading scheme books were given out this week and we will be expecting the children to read at least three times every week.
