RE work

In RE next lesson we will be looking at the healing of the Paralysed man. We will use this video in our lesson and think about how it links into our Lenten work.

Music

In Music this term we have been making rhythmic patterns. This video shows how a choir can make the most fantastic sound if they stick to the rhythm. What do you think?

Literacy

This week we will be writing our own Adventure stories using our story mountain plans. Your ideas sound fantastic - we can not wait to read them!

Maths

This week we will look at how we can use a compass to give directions. Have a go at this game and see if you can do it!

RE - Lent

The season of Lent begins on Ash Wednesday. Years 2 - 6 will be going to Mass in Church on Wednesday morning. We have talked about the promise that we have made in our class for Lent. We have also written our own promises for the prayer focus in our classroom. We will use this link together on Wednesday.
