1st - 5th May

Posted: May 6, 2017 by: Teachers (BishopTeachers) on: What's been happening in Discoverers & Voyagers.

Children have worked hard on their non-chronological reports this week, and have tried hard to include a combination of subordinating and coordinating conjunctions, our SPaG focus. We have learned such a lot about a variety of rainforest animals in the process. Children will be involved in the editing process on Monday, before sharing eachother's work and moving on to our new Literacy topic. 

The children have made great progress in their abilities to tell the time and solve real life time problems. While the Year 4's were away, the Year 3's revisited adding and subtracting money. 

We have continued learning about rainforests this week and the Year 3's have spent time looking at the work of Henri Rousseau, who is famous for depicting jungle scenes. We had a go at creating our own versions using water colours and computer programs. d a try at 

The children also had an extra assembly this week, led by the RNLI, who came to advise children on how to stay safe on the beach this summer. Thomas O volunteered to give them a helping hand and had a try at lifeguarding for himself!

We hope the Year 4's enjoyed their residential and are well rested over the weekend!  

See you on Monday!
