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…

Our ‘new’ food this week was avocado, we had three who loved it but the majority of 7A didn’t like it!! On Wednesday the students were learning more on the topic Witches and Wizards with Miss Troughton. They played a game, which involved stealing a potion from the Grand High witch without being…

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…

We had a fantastic week this week! We went on lots of community visits to celebrate the end of term and to practise the skills we've learnt throughout the year linked to road safety and responding to other dangers in the community, as well as paying for items in the community. 

We went to…

10A visited Haigh Hall this week, each group was given a map and were asked to find specific things whilst in the park. We had a great time exploring the woodland areas and the park areas where we found a train station, a pond with ducks, and walked all the way towards the Leeds Liverpool canal.

This week in maths, we continued learning about position and direction. We have been learning about clockwise and anticlockwise directions, applying our learning of fractions when talking about quarter, half, three-quarter and full turns, plotting coordinates to draw shapes and translating shapes…
