Visit to St Edmunds 

This term Nightingales were invited to a taster day at St Edmunds.  Linked to our class topic on the Victorians, we made block print insects and baked apple pies.

Martial Arts Taster Session 

This week the children have had the opportunity to take part in a taster for Martial Arts Club, which runs on a Thursday after school.  This is free for all KS 2 children, but places are limited, so please return forms promptly if you are interested.  Thank you.  

Photographs to follow.

3D Pictures 

The children worked really hard last term creating pictures with the illusion of depth.  We looked at how vanishing points are used to produce a 3D version of our own names and a room within a room.  Some of examples of their finished work are posted below.  The children should be bringing their finished art work home this week for you to see.

X Table Links 

In class this week we have been focusing on our 9 x table.  Ensuring the children are secure in their times table knowledge will be invaluable in class.  I have posted a link to an external site which may help with this. There are a number of different interactive games that the children can access from here.  Of course they can also use Mathletics as well.

Knowing the division facts is also just as important.
