Class Acutis started the week by creating some beautiful pieces of art work to show the virtues of faith, hope and love. They look fantastic hanging on the washing line in the classroom. The children have also been very interested in finding out about what a day at school in the Victorian times was like and are getting ready to produce a piece of writing on this topic. This afternoon they continued working on sequences in gymnastics and added jumps to their routines. As always, a busy and productive week with these wonderful children!

I cannot believe it is the end of another week! The children in Class Acutis are providing me with so many "Wow" moments. I have thoroughly enjoyed reading their animal narratives which have been inspired by The Hodegheg and I am looking forward to seeing their final drafts. In Design anTdechnology, they did a super job of creating prototype cams - not an easy task! On this note, if any parents or grandparents would like to come in and talk to the children about their knowledge and experience, please let me know! The children are enjoying their sessions with Coach Scott and in PE with me they have created some excellent gymnastics sequences. The next step will be to introduce apparatus. Most children have now completed homework tasks on the new learning platforms. If you have not done so yet, please have a go this weekend. Any problems let me know and many thanks for all your continued support.

The children in Class Acutis have been hard at work this week. A highlight was Science, where the children tested a range of solid materials and discovered that the shape of a solid could be changed if a force is applied. We went back into our historical chest and after looking at photographs, newspaper reports and letters the children deduced more about Emily, the owner of the items. All children have login details for TTRS and the competition has begun - the knowledge of some children is impressive. Miss Kantharia has also been testing children for Bronze, Silver and Gold awards for times table knowledge.

Another fun week in Class Acutis. The children had great fun developing their new story plots. We all went outside and had a go sitting in the hotseat as our new main character. Mrs Lawman was Ronald the Owl! The children impressed the adults with their secure knowledge of place value and the practical equipment has proved to be very useful. In history, the class were amazed at the changes in the British Empire over the centuries and loved discovering items from the chest which we are very lucky to have on loan from Lancashire.
