Abacus - The children can access this resource via the website and complete one game as their Mathematics homework. https://www.activelearnprimary.co.uk 

The children have their own log in details, these can be found in their reading diaries. The school code is kmm7 in the bottom box.

Reading

Please see the letter regarding reading expectations in the front of your child’s reading diary. Please ensure your child has their reading folder in school every day. The children will bring home a weekly reading for pleasure book, as well as their reading book. This is to share together and promote a love for reading.

During our Global learning lesson, we have explored colour mixing with powder paints.

In Mathematics, we have been learning about positional language – the children have been learning to do quarter, half and three quarter turns in different directions, both clockwise and anti-clockwise!

Within Science, we completed an experiment, using our investigation skills. Our question was, does the size of the sail affect the speed of the windmill.

In RE, we have recapped the role of all the people in the parable, the lost son and reviewed what lessons we can all learn from this.
