In maths they drew shapes and practised using a ruler by including the symmetrical lines.
Next week ,we will explore addition and subtraction along with checking the inverse and simplify addition using multiplication.

In science, when we had a dry afternoon! we walked around the wildlife area and the children completed a tally chart and pictogram of the mini-beasts they found. 
Next week, we will discuss and identify most living things that live in habitats to which they are suited.

In RE we discussed who made the world and we will continue this topic next week.

Rayyan’s Big Haircut – Please Donate. After 3 years of growing his hair Rayyan, a Year 6 child, will be having his hair cut at the Summer Fair (29th June). He will be donating the hair to the Little Princess Trust who will create wigs for children who are suffering from cancer. He is also hoping to raise money for Cancer Research to support their research into finding a cure to cancer.
