This week we have been working on fractions in maths we have looked at the difference between mixed numbers and improper fractions and comparing their values.
In our writing we have been writing a balanced argument about deforestation in the Amazon Rainforest.
Thank you for sending in the children’s wellies or old shoes as today we went on a bug hunt and used magnifying glasses to take a closer look.

Miss Elvidge

Please can you all check your child’s uniform for their name as we have had a few blazers go missing. If you have the wrong blazer please bring it back into school.

Also please can you check the names are clear to read in all their uniform.

Wellies

Please can each child have a pair of wellies or old trainers in school for this week as we are going to go on a woodland walk round the school site.

Thank you

Miss Elvidge
