A special well done to all these pupils this week!
And we have made it!! The past eight weeks have been a long, but rewarding half term for us in Oak Tree Class – none moreso than this past week.
Fabulous poetry has been created – using rhyme, rhythm AND onomatopoeia; tricky aspects of maths have been smashed (negative numbers!) and an internal hockey tournament has been carried out, to celebrate the end of a very successful unit in PE. In the rain!
It is clear that many of you are practising times table facts with your children and this has been so helpful in our recent maths unit. Please continue to do so, as after half term, we shall be moving onto FRACTIONS – and a secure times table knowledge makes this a much easier unit for Y5 children.
The ukulele playing has improved dramatically this week – “Ode to Joy” sounded great and many children volunteered to play solos to the class!
Our morning music style has been Soul – James Brown was a definite fave with this class!!
I hope you have a fab half term holiday! See you on November 3rd. (And please find more cardboard tubes for our Marble Runs!!)
Yours,
Mrs Adrienne Amos
