P6B - WB 24.02.25

Dear Readers,

It has been a very busy week with Parents Appointments on Tuesday and Thursday and it has been great to have so many Parents and carers coming to find out about how we have been doing in class!

The highlights of the week were:

• Our Big surprise spelling assessment, on which most of us did very well, although we had no idea it was coming!
• Our Big surprise Maths Assessment, on which the majority of us did well but lots of us seemed to have forgotten about things that we have learned in P6! Mrs Valente wasn’t very happy about this so we had an extra focus on Maths throughout the week.
• Revision of the four operations over and over again: addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.
• Focus on Word Problems, since many of us seem to find it a bit hard to understand what exactly is being asked.
• Finishing our research about our chosen animal for the Information report.
• Writing our Information report about our chosen animal by following the correct structure of Title, General Statement, Description and Evaluation.
• Continuing our work in Biodiversity and learning about many different words related to it.
• In our Pope Francis Faith Award, we have learned about the 1st Gift of the Holy Spirit, the gift of Knowledge and of how it helps us to learn about God and to pass on that knowledge to others. We will continue working on this next week.
• We congratulate and sadly say goodbye to Mr Daniel A, who will need to go to a different school. We all agreed that he deserved the Hot Chocolate of the week for always being a good friend, for being such a valuable member of our class and also for his cheeky smile!We will miss you a lot, Daniel!
• Finally, we would also like to congratulate the Scary Seas Table and say that Aiden, Lyon, Ishani M, Layla, Zac, Renna, Mariam and Ishani S. have been absoluteat keeping their table and the space around it organised and tidy! Well done, again! Team work makes the dream work!

We say goodbye for now wishing you all a happy weekend filled with lovely things!

P6B and Mrs Valente
