As the first Sunday of advent approaches Owl class have been reflecting on the significance of light in different faiths and in particular the symbolism of light for Christians. They will lead a school worship about Advent on Monday.
Owl class are really enjoying thinking about portal stories and have identified the different parts of a portal story. They then had a go at continuing to write from a class story starter. They have also added to their writing toolkit by learning how to use inverted commas to show direct speech.
Wow, maths this week has been great! So much remembered learning from previous years too which is lovely to see. Owls have looked at how to build times table facts by working from facts they already know. If they know 4 x 5 = 20 then they know 4 x 5 tens = 20 tens which equals 200.
The wellbeing workskshop focused on being a good friend and how to build resilience if things didn’t always go to plan. The children designed fantastic board games and enjoyed playing them together.
A reminder please that a coat is needed in school every day as children cannot go outside to play without one if it is raining. We try to get outside as much as possible and have had some disappointed children this week. Thank you.
