Week 9's Blog


English Comprehension

The learners were reading stories and showing their understanding of the text. We also had a talk about why its important to not take other peoples work and try to pass it off as our own work.
Some of the class were given the chance to work outside the classroom. 
Next week we will continue showing our reading comprehension skills during these lessons.





  Maths Fractions
We are now knowledgeable about fractions. We know what the  numerator and denominator are used for. We can identify different fraction numbers, such as quarters, halves and thirds.
Next week we will learn about measuring lengths and working out perimeter and area of shapes.






We also learned the basics of how to find a fraction of a number, such as what is one half of 16 ?
and what is two quarters of 16? by using our work books as counters.








Alphabetical Order 
We are trying to use dictionaries to help us with having the correct spelling and so we have been finding out how to use a dictionary quickly. Next week we will continue to explore our dictionaries.












Swimming 
ITS BACK
Our children are so happy that this has happened.













Handwriting
We are learning the correct shapes, sizes and joins for our handwriting. Next week we will be learning about how a and b join to other words.








Library

It is always a fun time in the library.













Congratulations
Some of our students received awards this week for outstanding effort and hard work in our class. 
Well done to them all!!!

Welcome To Week Four Hello to you all. We are now back on track and everyone is enjoying being with their friends and learning with them,  back at school.  Congratulations These people have all been busy using our "Study Ladder" app.  At various points along their learning journey, in "Study Ladder," the children are awarded certificates to highlight their progress.  Well done to you all!!! FEBRUARY We came outside to observe our calendar and discuss the unusualness of the month of February. We noted the spelling of the word and I pointed out the silent "r" that many adults forget about! We then had a guess at how many days there were in February and the discussed the reason that there are 29 days every four years in this month.  The learners thought that it was very strange that we could just add another day on to a month. PSPE The class discussed the word "Teamwork." We then shared our ideas about what makes a good team, what jobs are ...

The videos were sent out via the line group this week. Maths This week we have been discovering what fractions are, and how we can write them as numbers. We have learned about halves, quarters and thirds. We learned about the words "denominator" and "numerator" fractions are also useful when we are talking bout telling the time and that is what we will be investigating next week.

Congratulations Well done to the students who have worked on "Study Ladder" during our qurentine period. these activities are extra learning fun to emphasie the learning that we do in class. This week we were learning about right angles and the different ways that we can reposition shapes. Next week we will be focusing on learning our three time table and properties of three dimensional shapes, as we hope to add the knowledge of angles we learnt this week. English Writing  Our writing has two focuses at the moment. We are trying to improve our grammar and editing skills as well as write interesting stories. This week we started a story online and completed it at school. We asked the children to write about their feelings about learning online. They were able to say why they liked or disliked this situation. Next week we will continue to focus our attention on increasing the amount of words that we write in a story and try to edit the story as best as we can.   Maths ...
