On Monday, we wrote descriptions of Beegu's friend that we had made out of clay last week. We challenged ourselves to add the conjunctions 'because' and 'and' to make our sentences longer and add more information.
On Tuesday, we wrote about Beegu herself using repetition and we even tried adding a simile or two to make our writing even better.
This is Beegu.

In maths we have continued our measuring topic. We investigated some of the crash landing materials to find out how big they were. We have learnt how to measure in non-standard units using objects such as cubes and lolly sticks and many of us challenged ourselves to use a ruler to measure in centimetres.
Finally, we have been working hard to learn our lines, songs and Beegu's story for this afternoon's assembly. We hope that you enjoyed finding out about our Moon Zoom topic and would like to thank you all for coming to support us. We are sure you'll agree the children were amazing!

Notes and Reminders
Next Friday the children will have their second spelling test, challenging them to remember 10 of the tricky words they have been practising.
Please ensure reading record and spelling books are in book bags every day.
