This week's news:

Dydd Gwener Hapus / Happy Friday! 

In maths we have been measuring the area of shapes by counting squares. The children did this practically before working collaboratively in their table groups to create their own rectilinear shapes on large pieces of squared paper. The children then transferred this skill into their maths books, working with smaller squares and using two or more colours for each shape, then measuring the area of each individual colour and using this to work out the total area of their shapes. 

Our language lessons have this week have all been building towards a retelling of the story 'The Hueys and the New Jumper', which the children listened to last week during circle. The children learnt about verbs and adverbs and how they can use them to make their writing more interesting for the reader. 

The children have also started their final portraits in our inquiry lessons this week! It has been wonderful to see them bring together the skills they have learnt throughout this inquiry so far. They are so excited for our gallery event - more information to follow shortly via email! 

We have also continued making our Welsh books in the style of Yoshitake Shinsuke, this week our focus has been things we can and can't do and the children are getting very good at using these sentence patterns around the classroom. Da iawn pawb! 

Have a lovely weekend everyone, 

Mrs Bayley, Mrs Lewis, and Ms Sherrard.
