Dear all,

I hope that you all had a lovely half term break. This half term has begun just as the last one finished –it seems like the week has just flown by!

In English next week we will continue our unit of work related to the fantastic text, Arthur Spiderwick’s Field Guide… by writing letters to Mrs Custis about our concerns for a new child in the class (don’t worry –this is about an imaginary child!) and we will be writing our own captions for pages from the text.

In maths we will be looking at addition and subtraction of fractions and mixed numbers as well as exploring decimal fractions.

In science, you will finding out about the scientist Edward Jenner and what he discovered.

We will conclude our history topic next week by exploring crime and punishment in the Victorian era.

Computing/Art will be finishing off the photomontages.

As I mentioned to you all already, I will be at the fireworks tomorrow (in a fetching high-vis vest) so if you are coming please look out for me and say hi.

Have a good weekend.

Mr Gradwell
