Blog posts and Brilliant Discussions

We finished our class book, Leila and the Blue Fox this week and the children have really enjoyed writing an extended blog post based on her adventures and what the main character has learned.  They can’t wait to find out what our next book will be… 

Algebra – a much feared topic in maths – was on the agenda this week.  I think the children were surprised to see how quickly they grasped some of the basic concepts and by the end of the week were getting stuck in and solving some more challenging problems.  

In topic, we continue to be impressed with the pupils’ enthusiasm when learning about World War 2.  This week, our focus was the changing role of women during this period.  Lots of brilliant discussion and hot potato topics that were sensibly spoken and written about. 

For homework, we have suggested that the children look through their past SATs papers to revise and go over questions.
