Week beginning 15th September

In maths this week we have been mastering how to round numbers to different degrees of accuracy. In English we have been responding to a poem called 'Song of Old Time' and writing our own on the theme of time. We had a lot of fun testing the strength of different tapes. We tested strength in different ways after thinking of our own enquiry questions: some of us measured how much weight the tape could carry while others tested a tape against its stickiness. We used opposite sides of the colour wheel in art to portray opposite emotions. 

From now on there will be maths and spelling homework set each week. Please click on the homework links for more information.

Week beginning 8th September

We are all finding our feet in Amethyst class. There have been some changes in how the classroom is organised which we are all getting used to but the Year 6s have been very helpful to the Year 5s. We started our whole class brass sessions this week and we had a fantastic first session. In art we carefully mixed colours to make our own colour wheel which we will be using in our artwork later in the term. 

Only maths homework has been set this week - please click on the maths homework link for more information.
