This term we have been exploring what it would be like to live in a world of darkness? In Literacy our key text is ‘The Dark’ by Lemony Snicket. The children have been writing narratives, letters, character descriptions and non-chronological reports. The children enjoyed using natural resources to create what they believed the dark could look like. This inspired them to up level their adjective choices in their writing.

We have been working hard in spellings, practicing 5 practical ways to help us!

In maths they have been representing, ordering and comparing numbers to 1000 using place value counters and base 10. We have been concentrating on our number bonds and exploring the patterns that they have found. We have then moved on to addition and subtraction concentrating on the column method.

In Re we have been exploring the timeless story of Rama and Sita. This captivating tale from the Ramayana, rich with lessons of courage, loyalty, and the triumph of good over evil, has truly captured their imaginations. To make the learning experience even more meaningful, the children have been actively involved in recreating the story. They loved wearing colourful masks and enthusiastically performing the roles of the various characters for their classmates. Diwali, the festival that celebrates Rama and Sita's return home, and the victory of light over darkness.
