Forest School.

Elves had a wonderful time this afternoon looking at dandelions from their roots to the flower.  Sketching every part.  Finished off with hot chocolate, marshmallows and a sing song around the fire.  We are all looking forward to next week.

Welcome to Elves class.  

I am Mrs Rendell, the class teacher who is supported daily by two amazing ta's - Mrs Robson and Mrs Prior. We are a year 4/5 class.

In the mornings, we complete daily mental maths sessions using a fun passport as well as completing daily written arithmetic and daily multiplication tests, followed by a maths lesson.

In literacy, we are focussing our work on Charlie and the Chocolate Factory which will include, description, reading, tasting and designing.

Our afternoons are when we do non-core subjects including science, art, ICT, DT, projects, history and geography. Where possible, we complete our learning in a cross-curricular, topic-based fashion. 

This term, in history, we are looking at Anglo-Saxons.  Our RE topic is based on Christmas and Symbols.

This term we will focus our homework on TTrockstars, blog, reading and edshed.  The children can choose a topic that interests them to do at home, if they wish, and can bring to school to share with the class.  This is optional but I know how some of you like to do extra work.  

I have included a list below of home learning that your child can do if they are off from school isolating or they want to earn extra housepoints. Below is a list of ideas that are relevant to our learning in class.

Write a description of a new chocolate room.
