1st week back

Firstly, I hope you all had a really lovely break during half term and had the opportunity to relax and have some fun. This week ends just like all the weeks end in year 5, really busy. The children have worked extremely hard in all subjects but especially Maths and Literacy. The children have all used their growth-mindset and perseverance to securely understand 3 by 2 digit multiplication. They have worked hard to understand all the methods taught to them, and are all feeling more confident when tackling these maths problems within the lessons.

The children have also been fully engaged in our new literacy unit based on the story of Mary Anning. The children have done lots of research based on her life this week and completed their own copy of her autobiography to support their learning. The children have worked hard on their presentation skills and enjoyed delivering their findings to the rest of the class.

I hope you all have a lovely weekend,

Miss Croucher
