13th to 17th and 20th to 22nd December
We have had a busy, but enjoyable, end of term.
We have had our Y5 and Y6 Christmas Concert which was called The Xmas Factor which we performed to the rest of the school on Wednesday 15th December and to parents that evening and on the Thursday evening the day after. This week we had our Christmas party on Monday with the other Year 5 and 6 classes and, today, we had a carol service. Groups from our class read a set of Christmas Haiku with the other Year 5 class. (Other year groups read a poem or sang a song and Year 3 also acted out the Christmas story as Year 6 children gave the Bible Readings.)
In class we have concentrated on trying to finish off work (such as our Mr Men stories). We have also done some maths work on time and had a test on the maths we have been learning this half-term. Finishing off our woven panels has taken some time in the last couple of weeks and, having completed these, they were cut off the weaving frames and the warp threads tied off. The panels were then mounted on card to make Christmas cards. We have had time for other Christmas activities including Christmas crosswords and quizzes, making other Christmas cards (including an origami Father Christmas) and making 2011 calendars to take home.
