This week has been a busy week throughout school as it has been our Assessment week. The class have worked so very hard putting in to action everything that they have learned this year. They have shown some fantastic resilience and determination at tackling any challenge that has been asked of them and I could not be more proud.
Whilst assessment week has been going on, the children have also started their new writing unit. The class were tasked with creating their own Christmas diary so that they can capture the feelings they have about Christmas as a child and look back on it fondly as an adult. The enthusiasm for completing this work was simply wonderful to see. The class are so eager to put pen to paper next week and bring their diaries to life, but for this week we have been busy unpicking features, looking at good examples of diaries and generating language linked to our topic. Be sure to check back next week and see how we are getting on. This week, we have also been busy investigating our new Science unit of electricity. The class have been busy learning about the different forms electricity can occur, as well as investigating how the atom carries electrical charge through free electrons. The class were fabulous at recreating this in a drama piece consisting of a nucleus made up with protons, neutrons and electrons! We are excited to see where this learning takes us next week. We have also been busy continuing to explore our geography topic of Europe this week. We have looked specifically at the countries which make up the UK, Zooming in closer. we then investigated urban areas within the UK and used digital maps and the zoom function to locate and name such places. Another busy week in Team CB as always. Keep up your fantastic efforts Spectacular Space Cadets.
