The highlight of this week was undoubtedly our visit to the Gurdwara. The children represented the school wonderfully and I was so impressed by their openness to new experiences, especially tasting the langar. They asked thoughtful, respectful questions throughout and showed great curiosity about Sikh worship and community life. Please do take a look at the news article for photographs.
In English, we have been learning about punctuating direct speech when there are two speakers, remembering the important rule: new speaker, new line.
In maths, we have been adding and subtracting decimal fractions using the column algorithm. We have practised exchanging carefully and making sure our place value columns are lined up correctly so that tenths and hundredths stay in the right place.
Next week, in DT, we will begin designing and building earthquake-resistant structures, linking to our geography learning about tectonic hazards.
It was lovely to share your child’s progress with you at parents’ evening this week, and I hope you found the meetings useful.
