Creative Mondays in English!
Every Monday, we learn a new skill and show our understanding in a creative way. We then use what we have produced to help and support us to put our learning into practice during the week. The children have produced some really colourful and eye catching work!
Dog’s Trust Visit
On Monday, we were lucky enough to have a visit from The Dogs’ Trust. We had a fantastic time learning all about dogs and how we can keep safe around them. We all particularly enjoyed meeting Larry!
Harvest festival
Some members of Chestnut class enjoyed performing a wonderful poem during our special Harvest service in the church. We hope that those of you who were able to come along, agree that they did a fabulous job! It is never easy to stand up in front of a big group, but they took it in their stride! The service was a fantastic occasion, full of uplifting singing and giving thanks for all that Harvest has to offer.

Week 2
In English, our topic this term is ‘The Power of Pictures’. The children have written and edited some super setting descriptions based on images from one of our texts, ‘The Hunter’.
We have been looking at place value in our Maths learning. The children have been using lots of manipulatives and hands on activities to partition and represent numbers up to 10,000.
Week 3
In our English lessons, we have been learning about the different kinds of prepositions. Our work was inspired by the poem: The Lonely Mountain by L. L Goodrum. We then use these prepositions to describe the mountain and all the wonderful scenery around it.
Within Math, we have been looking at flexibly partitioning numbers to 10,000 using a variety of different ways.
