I would just like to start this week’s blog by saying that I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and a very Happy New Year!
We have had such a fantastic start to the next half term and to 2024 this week in class 5. We have started our brand-new topic – Rainforests – which has been so exciting. We have learned all about the 7 major land biomes during our geography lessons before focussing in on the rainforest biome and it’s features. We have even linked this learning to our English work where we have started writing persuasive texts to convince someone to visit the Amazon Rainforest for a holiday – I don’t think I’d take too much convincing!
In Maths we have been looking at some tricky reasoning questions but despite a tricky start, all of the children showed such determination and perseverance throughout the week and made some fantastic progress – I am so proud!
We have continued our dance lessons with Mrs Matthews this week in preparation for our Strictly Pennine performance at the Lawrence Batley Theatre on the 29th February and both myself and Mrs Matthews have been SO impressed with the skills that the children have been showing. I can’t wait for the final performance already.
Finally, we have started reading our latest class novel ‘The Explorer’ this week, both myself and the children are absolutely loving it and can’t wait to read it each and every day.
I hope you all have a fantastic weekend!
Miss Eastwood
