What an interesting week we have had! This week children have been given learning targets to help them strive to be the best learner they can be, which they keep in their pencil cases. They have worked their absolute socks off this week! In English, they finished their fairy tale based on the Pied Piper and then wrote another story, ‘The Little Match Girl.’was a very sad story which helped us to feel so grateful for all we have.
In history this week, we have formed our own Anglo-Saxon village - ‘Angleville.’ Each child has a character and a family they belong to. We have done a huge detailed drawing of our lovely village to find out more about Anglo-Saxon life. We found out why they invaded our country, this week. Children were challenged to make their first ever movie, explaining this and and the winning one would be put online. Here it is:
Well done to the Shoemaker family - very good attempt at your first movie! I bet children will enjoy their Anglo-Saxon homework task this week - they are loving being immersed in the Anglo-Saxon world!
In maths this week, we mastered column subtraction - be sure to watch the video on our help section to see how we do it at our school.
We had a lovely worship of remembrance on Wednesday and took part in two minutes of silence.
RHE focus
This week we focused on God’s purpose for us and how we can grow closer to God in prayer. We learned that we are never bothering God and He wants us to trust him with our worries and our daily thoughts. We then did one of Mrs Lyons’ stories - “Whisper your Worries, Rosie Wren,’ and we had a brilliant conversation in class about what worries us. We discussed together how we can manage our worries and not let them control us. We learned about putting our trust in God - that He always knows what is best for us.
