Our highlight this week has been our trip to the Cambridge Museum of Technology.
We explored different inventions and took part in interactive, hands-on workshops about bricks, steam pumps, printing press and communication methods. Thank you to all the parents who accompanied us on the trip.
In Maths we have been really working hard on our times tables and we have enjoyed exploring patterns between them. In the past few weeks we have looked at 3,6,2,4,8. Keep practising these at home to develop your confidence.
Have Fun Teaching on Youtube has some good times tables song.
We are really excited about our persuasive writing in English. We have been set the challenge of thinking of ways to help our school community with recycling and food waste. Therefore, inspired by Greta Thunberg’s speech, we created a bank of emotive language and features of persuasive writing that we will use in the coming weeks.
