Well yet again we have had another wonderful week here in Class 5!
It has been our last week of the half term and it officially marks half way through the year which is bitter sweet.
We have been very busy, writing letters of complaint to Rishi Sunak about the issue of deforestation in the Amazon Rainforest, writing a non-chronological report all about the amazing David Attenborough and some children have even written school council speeches too. Lots of writing in class this week!
We also held a democratic vote in class today to allow each child to vote for who they would like to be their school council leaders. I was so impressed with every single child who had the courage and determination to write and speak their amazing speeches, it was so wonderful to see. Well done, everyone.
In maths this week it has been decimals, percentages and fractions central! We have been learning how to convert between each of them and even answering some tricky word-problems about them too. The children have blown me away with how well they have taken to the topic, very impressive!
We also completed our artwork this week by using watercolour paints to paint our Henri Rousseau inspired drawings of the rainforest.
All in all, a jam-packed week full of fun and learning.
I hope you all have an amazing half-term break and enjoy a well-deserved rest.
I already can’t wait for the first day back where we will be starting our brand-new topic all about The Maya!
Thank you,
Miss Eastwood
