Remembrance Day. Week Ending: 11.11.16

Hello,

In maths this week we have been exploring different fractions. We have been shading fractions of a shape and also finding 1/2, 1/4 and 1/3 of a number. 

We have been studying nocturnal animals in English. "A female fox is called a Vixen" (Theo) "A badger can eat around 100 worms a night." (Teddy)   "Hedgehogs have about 5000 to 6500 spines at any one time" (Holly) We have been gathering our own research because next week we are going to be writing our own non - chronological report about nocturnal animals.

In history we found out about the past and Remembrance Day. At school today we had 2 minutes silence at 11 o'clock to remember the people who died during the war. We have been buying poppies at school and recording facts about Remembrance Day in our own way. Some of us created a mind map, some made poems and others created their own prayers. 

During PSHE we spoke about World Kindness Day. We shared examples of how we have received kindness and also experiences about being kind to others. World Kindness Day is happening on the 12th November. What will you do as a kind act? We have set ourselves challenges. 

We have been using our sewing skills during topic. We are busy creating Christmas tree decorations ready to sell at the Christmas Bazaar!

Congratulations to Oliver who is taking home Snowy the learning owl for showing great independence skills this week. 

Well done to Bertie who is our Star of the Week for his brilliant team work skills.
