P4/5 - Weekly News (20.5.22)
We've been writing descriptively this week about a cottage and a mysterious wizard! We started by creating a story map which the children then used to structure their writing. I thoroughly enjoyed reading everyone's story and monitoring the progress they have made in this area.
Our numeracy focus has been on developing our mental maths skills as well as calculating area. The P4s started with calculating nonstandard units and progressed to calculating standard units. On Friday we worked in groups to play lots of different numeracy games to develop our mental maths recall.
Together, as a class we created a large food pyramid to show our understanding of the importance of having a balanced diet. In small groups the children drew different foods and correctly added them to the correct food group on our food pyramid which we have displayed on our class topic board.
The children have continued to enjoy their weekly Disney Playmaker sessions as part of their PE.
Have a lovely weekend! 😊
