What another busy week we have had in Team 4!
In our English learning this week, we explored how to write speech between characters to show how they were feeling and to help progress a story. We began by reading our class text 'When The Giant Stirred' and we focussed on how the characters were feeling when the volcano started to rumble. We then created speech to show what the village chief would have said to the villagers when he told them that they needed to leave the island before finally creating more speech as the villagers packed their belongings.
In our spelling work this week, we focussed on common exception words. These are words that are not spelt how they sound. You can support this learning at home by practicing the following words with your child:
- Consider
- Enough
- Interest
- Important
- Natural
- Forward
In our math's work this week, we have been busy learning all about time. We learnt how to convert time between hours and minutes and then minutes and seconds. We also learnt how to show a range of times on a clock and practiced showing these times on clock faces. In our times table work, we focussed on the seven times table this week and we learnt a range of techniques to help us learn them.
In our afternoon learning, we performed our songs learnt on the violins to parents and families in the hall, in geography we explored some of the different countries within Europe and plotted them on a map and then identified some of their capital cities. We also watched the Horn's Mill Has Got Talent auditions in the hall on Thursday afternoon.
Reminders for next week
Please ensure that your child brings in their reading record and book on Monday ready to be swapped/checked. Please could you also ensure that they have logged five reads in their record for the week gone.
We have our Easter Bingo in the hall on Tuesday starting at 3.30pm.
On Thursday, the class will be watching the Horn's Mill Has Got Talent finals in the hall.
On Friday, the class will be visiting St Pauls Church for an Easter Experience. The class will be walking there along with Teams 3, 5 and 6.
Mouse Mania on Friday is a film and sweets so children can bring in snacks if they wish.
Have a lovely weekend Team 4!
