Weekly update 11.7

The Year 5 children have really impressed us with their rounders skills in PE, there were some great rounders scored last week and also some supportive team work with words of encouragement. In English the children finished writing their persuasive advert for the underwater camera in our book and will write it up in neat at the beginning of next week. In maths they were looking at conversions of units of measure, understanding millimeters, millilitres, kilometers and kilograms as well as calculating approximate conversions between metric and imperial measurements. Please continue to send in lots of plastic rubbish before our art lesson on Wednesday.
