A fresh half-term.

Welcome back everyone, i hope you had a great half-term.

Learners have been busy as always this week.

We have begun our English work around narrative and have enjoyed retelling The Three Billy Goats Gruff using a story map. We  are excited to develop our own stories, based on this popular story, as the weeks go on.

In maths we are learning about 3D shapes this week. There has been a lot of discussion about the names and properties of 3D shapes.

In Science, our new topic is plants. On Tuesday we looked carefully at daffodils in class and were able to draw and label the parts of a plant.

In RE, we have a new value, Justice. We have delighted in being able to resume our whole school Collective Worship in the Hall, this has been lovely to enjoy and learn together again.

We REALLY enjoyed World Book Day this week. We dressed up as a character from a book – and we looked amazing! We worked so hard to create our own class book, with a maths theme (which was personalised to Sleights School). We were SO proud to produce ‘Odd Bob and Even Steven Go To Sleights School’. We worked on one page each and the result was tremendous – a real team effort. The book will go in our library for all to enjoy!

Great work Learners!
