Term One Week 2

We have been really settling into our new routines this week in Y5/Y6 and it has been great to recognise all those children who show consistently good attitudes towards their learning on our recognition boards,

The hard work, concentration and drive to achieve high expectations has resulted in some high quality work from the children which has been displayed in our Galleries of Excellence.

As mathematicians, the Y5s have been grappling with he relationship between fraction tenths and decimal tenths – they used cubes to aid their understanding of the concepts.

As readers, we have begun our new quality text ‘Cosmic’ written by Frank Cotterall-Boyce and have loved having enough copies to share one between two as we read.

On Tuesday, Mr McGilloway , the principal from Broadoak Academy, came to talk to us about life at Broadoak – it was interesting listening to what he had to say.
