Last week, we started our new Maths topic of ‘Fractions’. Our first lesson involved finding equivalent fractions and writing fractions in their simplest form. Fractions is a tricky topic in Y6 but we have no doubt Y6 will show their determination and resilience with their fractions…

Last week in Latin, we practised weaving which was an important part of Roman culture. Y6 really enjoyed this lesson and produced some amazing weaved patterns!

This week in writing we have been focussing on using high level vocabulary to uplevel our work!

Today, we had fun playing playground games with a younger year group for our citizenship award!

Today in maths we have been representing numbers within 3! We are super mathematicians in reception.
