We’ve had a productive week finishing our Roman helmets, or cassis as we say in Latin! The children will be able to take these home on Monday, along with their shields, they are ready to ward off any Barbarian invasions.
In maths we have been working on written methods of addition. We’ve used resources to demonstrate how to add 3 digit numbers together and use the key term exchanging when two of the digits add to more than 9. The children should be able to explain this term with hundreds, tens and ones columns.
The real highlight of the week was performing our soliloquies, with special guest Miss Moss Silverson present to see progress the children have made with their writing. We listened to actors performing Roman and Celtic soliloquies on the eve of going to battle and then created our own. We are lucky to have some lively performers in the class that really got into character and gave some fierce speeches!
We have now started our weekly spellings, this weeks focus is -ly endings. New spellings will be added to our Google classroom on Friday afternoon and children will be tested on Thursdays. Please get in touch if you need help with accessing this, thanks to those parents who have already been in touch via google classroom. The children have been told if they are in Green or Blue group.
