We have had a great first week back at school. We have enjoyed reuniting with our friends and familiarising ourselves with classroom routines. It has been so lovely to learn together again.
This week our main focus has been on settling back into school however we have also been busy starting our class novel, ‘Borrowers’ by Mary Norton. Our literacy work is going to centre on this text. This week we have been working on the comprehension skills – prediction, visualisation and making connections. In numeracy we have been revisiting algebraic equations.
Next week we are going to design and build a small model house for the Borrowers. Can I ask everyone to bring in an old shoe box or a cardboard box and any small house hold items that they might want to use in the model for example bottle tops, buttons, small cardboard boxes, scraps of material etc. Any extra boxes would be appreciated for pupils who are unable to take in objects from home.
