This week in the classroom...

12th September 

We have had another super week in Year 3 and 4!  In music, we started our first lesson with our Love Music Trust teacher learning how to play the glockenspiel.  We learnt how to set our instruments up, had a go at playing a few notes all together as a class to a backing track and took part in some fun rhythm games!

In PE, we started our fitness unit and learnt the importance of warming up and cooling down.  We learnt about fitness circuits and had a go at some of the exercises such as star jumps, mountain climbers and high jumps.

In English, we have started to read A Bear Called Paddington and have written our own descriptions and sentences retelling what has happened in the story so far. 

5th September 

What a fantastic first week back!  This week we have settled into our new class and got started with our first maths topic of place value.  We looked at different ways to make 100 and revised some of our times tables.  In English, we have written letters telling Miss McCann all about ourselves and applying for different classroom jobs!

In history, we introduced our first topic all about ancient civilisations!  We are looking at the Ancient Sumerians first and learnt about who they were and where they lived.  In PSHE, we put together our class rules and talked about how we can be respectful and kind.  

We are looking forward to a full and fun week next week!
