We had a wonderful ‘Blitz Day’ yesterday. It was amazing to see the children dressed up, it really was like taking a step back in time. Spam sandwiches and jam tarts were the stars of the show. The children really have gained a good understanding of what life was like during WW2 over the course of our studies and it was lovely to be able to celebrate their work. Thank you for all of your support at home enabling them to enter into the party spirit by dressing them in costume from the era.
Also, many thanks for your support today. It’s very generous of you all to support the cancer charity fundraiser; I’m sure the money raised will make a difference.
Column subtraction has been our focus in maths. This week the children have put their knowledge of place value and subtraction to good use and have done well to solve mathematical problems.
In English the children have been creating story maps about our class story ‘To the Edge of the World’. They have also been using Pie Corbett actions to retell it and it was an absolute joy to see them fully engaged as a whole class. They really are fantastic young people.
Next week we’ll be recording our song as part of the whole school Christmas concert. Their Christmas jumpers look amazing and rehearsals have been going well. I hope that you will enjoy their performance which will be available to watch on the DVD.
We were once again blessed to have Mrs Lloyd join us on Monday and Thursday. She dressed up with us on Thursday and really does cut a delicious spam sandwich!
Have a great weekend.
Kind regards
Miss H Hughes and Mrs Evans
