The Week Ahead - Tuesday 2nd May

Date: 1st May 2017 @ 9:28pm

I hope you have all had a fantastic Bank Holiday weekend.

We have a busy week in school, preparing for our assembly on Thursday morning.  The children will be busy finishing off writing their own material to present and preparing some props.  I'm sure you will be as proud of them as I am. They have been keen to go off and research their parts for the assembly and put together a passage to read or perform or to make a prop.

Our spelling activities this week will continue to focus on suffixes.  Adding less / ness / ful / ed / in / es / s to root words.  We will be continuing to practice words from the Year 3 and 4 statutory word list.  Please practice these at home.  Several children received their Golden Bike certificates in assembly on Friday.  Well done.  Don't forget to practice using Spellodrome.

English - To complete our unit on Play scripts we will be writing a play script to go with a silent film clip we have been watching called Dum Spiro.  Starting with the dialogue and then adding in the stage directions before the children will have the opportunity to write their own mini play script  - a story of their own, or a scene from a story they know well.

Maths -  we will continue to develop our understanding of subtraction word problems and methods before moving on to multiplication and division word problems.  

Art - we will begin to design our own mosaics and think about different methods we could use to create them. 

R.E. - Sikhism. We will be learning about Guru Nanak.
