Good afternoon everyone!
Here's a little round-up of some of the activities class 4 got up to last week! We had another great week!
The children have continued to enjoy working on activities linked to our text 'The Egyptian Cinderella'. This week the children worked in small groups to role play a section of the story each, so that we were able to complete the whole story as a class. The children were absolutely amazing! Their confidence is really lovely to see; they enjoyed performing their plays to each other and have found them really useful when completing their own compositions of the story.
This week we will be beginning to explore our new text, 'Marcy and the Riddle of the Sphinx'. We will be using this text to enthuse the children to begin their very own adventure stories. Do wish us look as I know this may prove to be a challenge!!
In view of our forthcoming singing performance in the Holmfirth Parish Church on May 10th, the children have been working exceptionally hard in their music lessons to learn and practise the songs. They will be performing alongside other schools in the Holme Valley as part of the opening act of the Holmfirth Folk Festival weekend; it should be a very exciting event and I know the children are really looking forwards to performing together.
Science has been fun this week too; we have recreated the water cycle whilst growing cress and on Monday will be investigating whether or not the rate of evaporation is affected by a raise in temperature. We are hoping for at least a little corner of sunshine on Monday morning so we can compare 2 different locations; keep your fingers tightly crossed!
The children loved P.E. this week; not only are they continuing to enjoy weekly swimming sessions, we have also now begun badminton lessons too. I was very impressed with the children's enthusiasm and progress on Thursday, very impressive indeed!
Hope you have all had a wonderful weekend. Looking forwards to seeing you all on Monday!
See you tomorrow,
Mrs Matthews and Mrs Pearce
