Skylarks

What a fantastic Term 5 the Skylarks have had! Well done to each and everyone of you for your hard work, perseverance and Manor Fields spirit. Here are a few highlights:

We have worked hard to master fractions and decimals.  We finished the term with some measuring fun and using our money and decimal knowledge to plan a party.

Podkin-One-Ear has been our exciting fiction text this term and was used in most Guided Reading and Writing activities. Skylarks have rewritten the first two chapters. Wow! The standard of creative writing was fantastic!

Skylarks absolutely loved creating tiles in the style of Iron Age art and using them to make a mono-print. The incredible detail, creativity and resilience shown by individuals has blown us away.

We have travelled to Italy in Geography and travelled back in time during our Dance lessons to recreate some dance moves from the 1950’s and 1960’s.

What a thrilling and dynamic term we have had – thank you Skylarks!

The summer term promises just as much excitement, and we can’t wait to get started!

In preparation for next term’s Multiplication test, Skylarks have been working hard learning all their times tables. Please help them to continue this practice during the half-term holidays. Here are a few suggestions:

-            www.timetables.co.uk

-             chant the timetables

-            sing them whilst brushing teeth, getting dressed, going up and down the stairs, playing football in the garden etc.

-            Ask a grown-up to ask you some timestable questions
