Thank you so much children for your amazing work on the brain - you did some truly excellent work and used your super brains to do it!

Maths

There is a double-sized maths sheet in your book which practises some of the things covered this week and also has a fun game on the back to play with a parent.

English

We have been learning how to start sentences in a more interesting way this week - with fronted adverbials for TIME and place.

Go into your garden, park or beach. Observe the wildlife and write some sentences with fronted adverbials - as we practised in class. Here are some examples:

PLACE

Underneath a leaf, lay a ruby red ladybird.

Over my roof, flew a delicate butterfly.

TIME

All of a sudden, my sneaky cat dashed across the lawn.

At midday, I spotted a hairy caterpillar.

Handwriting must be neat - make it your best work like you do in class.

RHE Managing my Feelings. My Anger Plan.

This week we have talked about managing our angry feelings. We compared the build up of anger to a firework and we thought of good ways to douse the flames and calm down. We need to get back into our ‘thinking brain’ instead of letting our ‘animal brain’ take over.

Come up with a plan at home of what you can do if you feel like you are losing control.

How will you calm down and get back in your thinking brain?
When calm, what is the best way to sort problems out?
3. Practise these strategies so that you can be in control of your own feelings.
Reading and Nessy.
We are reading really grown up books now! What a super class of readers! Keep it up! Nessy children - keep it up every day.
