PAGE UPDATE: Monday 18th January

Great effort with your Banksy work last week. This week, can we do the same, but on the subject of MARTIN LUTHER KING. Watch this week's assembly first for some ideas and then do a little bit of independent research each day. On Thursday and Friday, think about how you would like to present your findings and once you have completed your work, please send it over to me to read.

Suggested timetable for school closure: Week beginning 18-01-21

If you have access to the zoom application on one of your devices and would like to take part in some poetry on Tuesday, please email me for the meeting ID. I am also aiming to do a little bit of maths on Wednesday in a zoom session. Hopefully see you there...

In the second half of the Autumn term, we are studying 'Wonder' by RJ Palacio.

As part of our recovery curriculum post lockdown, the second half of the Autumn Term will see us re-visit the key words from the Year3/4 curriculum. The sooner we recognise and learn these spellings and apply them in our own writing, the sooner we can move on to the Year 5/6 curriculum spellings.

Below is the link to the whole list and we will split them into manageable sections for our weekly spelling tests. There are also links to handwriting practice sheets to help with lead in strokes and joins.
