This week we’ve started our new topic, Viva Espana and in MFL lesson from next week we will be learning some Spanish. We have finished our front covers which we based on the famous Spanish artist Picasso. On Thursday we had a Spanish dance workshop with a dance teacher called Suzanne. We learned about some colourful carnival and festivals in Spain and then had a go a creating some dances linked to these.
This week On Wednesday we had a visit from a famous poet called Terry Caffrey. His book is called ‘It wasn’t me Miss,” and it was really funny. We had a poetry assembly and workshop with Terry and we made a mini book with a poem in.
As you might know, this week was World Book Week and we had a brilliant day dressing up on Thursday – we all loved the costumes.
In PE from now on we will be doing SWIMMING on Mondays.
In Maths we have been learning to measure in mm, cm and metres. Did you know there are 1000 mm in a metre?
Finally, today was our whole school ‘Poetry Slam’ . This week we wrote poems in our classes about the Earth and looking after it. We put some of our best words and phrases together to make a class poem and performed the poem in assembly. What a week!
