We have been getting stuck into our nativity practice now that the stage is up! The children have been learning their lines and the songs brilliantly. We cannot wait to do a dress rehearsal next week.

In English, we finished our unit on non-chronological reports. For our hot write this week, we wrote a non-chronological report on ‘All About Yatton Keynell’. We used our learning from our geography lessons to help us with this and make sure we included the features of a report that we had looked at.

In Maths, we have continued to look at multiplication. We looked at different images that showed us repeated additions and 'lots of' which helped us find out the multiplication sentence. We then looked at arrays and how arrays can be used to represent multiplication.

We have been continuing to look at the question ‘What is the Good News Jesus Brings?’. This week we looked at how Jesus gave peace. Jesus’ promise to his disciples from John 14:27: “My peace I leave with you, my peace I give to you. Do not let your heart be troubled and do not be afraid.” We discussed how Jesus’ first followers went through many troubles, but they had peace in their hearts and that Christians today find peace in their faith too.
