Last week was a great week in school. We had great fun learning about the phases of the moon (some Oreos were consumed), we carefully considered the impact of the Normans on life in Britain and we were introduced to discussions which we thoroughly enjoyed taking part in.

Notices:

The children need their P.E. kits on Thursday next week although we do ask them to be in school all week if possible. Earrings should be removed before school please. 

Please encourage the children to spend a little time each day reading, which we would be grateful if you logged on boomreader so that the children get dojos in school, practise their spelling patterns and spend a little time working on mastering their times tables.

Next week's learning:
- In maths, we will continue our work on decimal numbers
- In English, we will continue learning about discussions and start planning our next piece of writing, discussing whether animals should be kept in zoos.
- In reading, we will continue to analyse the story 'How to Train Your Dragon'
- In history, we will complete an end of unit assessment as well as thinking who the biggest tyrant was out of Harold Godwinson, Harald Hardrada and William of Normandy. 
- In Spanish, we will complete an end of unit assessment.
- In computing, we will continue to learn about databases
- In science, we will continue learning about Earth and Space - this week focussing on the names of the planet in our solar system.
- In P.E. we will continue working on our dance routines and developing our football skills.
