12th to 16th December
This has been our Christmas Concert week.
Our Years 5 & 6 presented a Christmas production entitled Virtually Christmas - in which the nativity was reimaginged as if modern technology had been available in first century Palestine. The singing and acting was all very good and lots of positive comments were made.
In class, we have done further work on our Mr Men stories - writing, editing and copying up the opening and build-up of our stories. In maths, we did a review test, covering all the main work we have done this half term and in the next few days have started a unit of work on ideas about number and place value focussing on decimals.
We have also made good progress in our work on Belief, Symbols and Art. We have thought about symbolism in the design of the Christingle (Christianity) and the menorah (Judaism), showing our understanding by producing our own drawings of these and labelling them to show the meanings that are being represented by the elements in our pictures.
We have spent a lot of time on our weaving this week. Some of us are still working on our woven panels while others have finished and have started to prepare the panel for using them to create a Christmas card.
