At the end of last week we spent some time on preparing for our Christmas production. We did a maths test on Thursday and, as well as having a PE session and doing our spelling test, we wrote up the report for the science experiment we did on reflectivity that we had carried out earlier in the week. On Friday morning we had our special English and Maths groups as usual.

We have been doing our English work through our RE studies today. We began by using the Authorised Bible version of the Christmas Story to look for words which are no longer used in everyday English. We also looked at verb endings which are no longer commonly used. Later in the day we thought about the Jewish festival of Hanukkah. We listened to the story and then had to sequence a written version of the story.

During our session in the computer room we used the BBC Science Clips site to think some more about our topic on Light and then did some more work on spreadsheets.

We also gave the first performance of our Christmas Concert. The Year 3 and 4 children came to watch as did the Year 2 children from the infant school.
