Our Learning

What a crazy week we have had in Seals class! It has involved stories, SATs and more!

English -

We continued writing and editing our creative stories this week. There are a few finishing touches to be made but the children have amazed me with the level of description in their work already! For our next extended write, we will be writing a newspaper report. If you can, buy a newspaper from the shop and have a read to familiarise yourself with the layout and language features used in report writing.

Maths -

Year 5 have been very busy in Maths this week. They have calculated angles, looked at lengths and angles in shapes, identified regular and irregular polygons, and understood the names and properties of various 3-D shapes.

Mental Health Week -

Exercise is a powerful tool for improving mental health and wellbeing, so, in honour of Mental Health Awareness Week, we took part in a live Joe Wicks workout to get our brains and bodies moving!

SATs - 

And just like that, the SATs are over - Yay! I am so incredibly proud of every Year 6 this week. You all remained calm, took everything in your stride, and gave each paper 110% effort - Well done! You should all be proud of yourselves :)

Show reveal!

After much anticipation, we have now revealed to the children that the Year 6 end-of-year show will be... Matilda the Musical!

The children seem excited and enthusiastic about the show selection, which is wonderful!

On Friday, we held auditions in school and I truly was mesmerised by the bravery, confidence and talent we have in Year 6 - They certainly didn't make the audition process easy for the adults! To all of the children who auditioned, and to those who watched, I am beyond proud of your efforts and attitudes on Friday - you were all amazing! I cannot wait to see how the production comes together with this spectacularly talented bunch of individuals!
