Highlights: We have had a really productive week in Class 5 and the children have worked really hard. In English, we have been finishing our final piece of writing in our unit of setting descriptions and we have written some fantastic pieces, really thinking about our language and vocabulary choices. In History, we had a great afternoon creating our own laws for an island we were in charge of. The children really thought hard and used their knowledge from previous lessons to come up with some fantastic rules to keep society peaceful. Finally, in Science we made a wire loop game that could potentially feature at Hull Fair 2025!
What’s happening next week: Next week is ART WEEK in Class 5 which will see a nice end to a busy term. If parents have any rolls of tin foil or cardboard that could be generously donated, then that would be fantastic. Also next week there is the cross country finals for all those who came in the top 10 at the last event. That will take place at Hornsea School.
Spellings: The spellings next week are listed below. It is about adding suffixes to words ending in “fer”
Class Focus: KINDNESS! We are having a real focus on being kind to one another and to our community. The children have a little challenge at home this week. See if you can notice it this week!
Homework: See above.
