Hi everyone!
Another great week in our classroom! This week felt much more settled and we did lots of learning!
Our Maths learning has continued to be amazing! We continued with place value, looking at numbers up to 1000 (Y3) and 10000 (Y4). The numbers just keep getting bigger and bigger! We have even challenged ourselves with some extra hard questions, learning how to understand what the question is asking and thinking deeply about solving the problem.
In Literacy, we continued reading ‘Counting on Katherine’ and learnt lots about Katherine Johnson and Rosa Parks. We discussed boycotts and segregation and how unfair life was for black people in the USA in that time. We practised using prepositions (Y3), fronted adverbials (Y4) and conjunctions.
Our brains have been working hard in IPC! We made our own mnemonics, learnt the difference between a fixed and growth mindset and our most exciting lesson was making the tallest tower out of just spaghetti and marshmallows! The lesson was supposed to make us practise resilience, teamwork and growth mindset… but I think the hardest part was trying to avoid eating all the marshmallows!
Thank you everyone who made it to the meeting this week- it was so lovely to get to know you! If you couldn’t make it, no problem! It would still be lovely to meet you, so please email or say hello if you get chance. Also, thank you for all the homework- the children all did great! I hope they can complete this week’s homework well too.
Have a lovely weekend!
