10A

This week we have been celebrating the count down to Christmas, starting with our production on Monday. It was a fantastic display of all the talents we have in school. 10A really stepped up this year, taking on some of the roles of running the show, including being narrators, judges, props,…

Monday 18th - Today we had our first look at picture news. We had a look at an ancient city that has been discovered in the jungle in Mexico. We all found it really interesting, we then went on to have a look at other big discoveries through history and how they impacted the world. In the…

on Thursday and Friday most of Year 10 took part in Bikeability. We  were shown new skills such as doing u turns safely in the road and hand signals. Everybody had a great time and can now ride our bikes more safely. Thanks to Chorley Sports Partnership for teaching us these new…

On Monday morning we learnt about Remembrance Day. We talked about why we commemorate Remembrance Day and what happens on each year on the 11th November. We then went down to the cage at 11 o'clock to listen to Mrs Chaloner playing the Last Post on her trumpet. The whole class were very…

This week saw some of us continuing with addition and subtraction in maths, looking at how to break down word problems so solve the questions. Some of us worked on multiplication and division, using written methods to find the answers.

In English, we have been writing letters to local garden…

Welcome back to Autumn 2 - this will be a long term with lots of exciting things happening along the way, leading up to Christmas! As I forgot to publish the blog at the end of last term, some of the photos are of our last week in term 1 - apologies! 

The week started off with us making some…

This week in English, we thought of a place we would like to visit on holiday and created a word bank to describe it. We then used these words to tell our families about our holiday on a postcard. We had to be sure to not write too much, as postcards aren't very big, but I think we all got across…

Maths this week has seen us continue with addition and subtraction, with some learners working on adding 3 1-digit numbers together, adding tens across 100s and even adding and subtracting fractions! 

In English we have been working on our reading skills, spending lots of time reading our books…

This week we finally finished our letters to Joe Wicks, telling him all about our Healthy Living topic and asking him questions about his favourite food and exercise. We posted them off and have already had a reply from one of his team to say he has received our letters and will reply as soon as…

Last week, we decided in our English lessons that we would write a letter to Joe Wicks to tell him all about our topic Healthy Living and to ask him if he has any tips for us, so today we thought about what we wanted to tell him and what questions we had for him. Hopefully we will get a reply! In…

So Monday started with us reading examples of letters, written in a formal tone. It was funny reading what the people were complaining about but we found some interesting vocabulary that the author had used to get his point across. After break we had maths, where we are recapping addition and…

So, Tuesday saw us return to school.. as Year 10s! Everyone appeared happy to return and share stories of what they had been up to over the holidays. Some great adventures were had by the sounds of it. We started the day playing games altogether, giving us chance to catch up after the 6 week…
