This week has been busy as always with the class taking on their final assessment week in Team CB. It has been truly delightful to see how well our children have performed - attacking anything that has been put in front of them and ultimately showing what brilliant learners they have become over the course of this year. I hope each and every member of the team feels proud of themselves for giving their all at all points this year - I know all staff in Team CB certainly are feeling very proud! Elsewhere in our learning, we have been busy this week exploring capacity. We have taken our learning outdoors and created our own human scales of 1, 2 and 5 to help us understand how we can count and calculate smaller intervals on a scale. The class thoroughly enjoyed this and it really supported their visual learning back in class when asked to read and interpret scales. We have worked hard on finding missing values and also adding and subtracting volumes. Over the coming weeks, we will begin to look at shape in more detail for our Maths learning. In our writing we have been working towards writing a letter to Boris Johnson to demand change and prevent plastic pollution in our seas. This is something that the children have shown a huge passion for within their writing and they are just in the process of constructing their letters which I am sure will make a fantastically compelling read when they are completed. We have also been busy in our Science this week, we have been looking closely at classification and how we can classify things in different ways. This week we have spent time classifying sea creatures using a classification key and understanding the way these work. Our physical observations helped us decide what was a marine mammal, fish, shark, mollusc or crustacean. We have also investigated herbivores, omnivores and carnivores and what each of these animals consumes as part of it's diet. Check back for more updates in the coming weeks!
