In art, we have focused on our drawing skills and have drawn a range of food. Here are some examples. I am sure you will agree that they are amazing.

This half term our science unit is all about reversible and irreversible changes. Here are some pictures of an experiment we conducted with bicarbonated of soda, citric acid and red cabbage liquid. We discussed what evidence we had to prove that a reaction had taken place.

Welcome back for another year of exciting learning. Here is a copy of our yearly overview of topics.

Please remember that supporting your child's learning is key to their success. Encourage your child to always do their best and be proud of their achievements. Help them with their daily reading, learning of times tables and weekly homework tasks- and make time for the fun things: visits to the park; borrowing books from the library; going to a museum or an art gallery; baking and making things together... 

 

Please get in touch if there is something which is troubling you, or your child - however trivial it may appear.

 

Many thanks

Additionally, we are working very hard on our Maths and English work so we can evidence that we are making good progress with our individual targets.
