Incredibles………Sports………..Writing……….Special Visit

Our Incredibles this week are……..

Harry – For his contribution to our parachute investigation in Science. Harry compared different ways a paper fell to the ground and compared them by recording results in a table. He then looked at the forces which may have been acting upon them.

Sara – For good use of her reasoning skills in Math when looking at decimals

Niamh – For amazing effort and determination in her learning this across all subjects but particularly Maths

Ellias – For his continued effort to improve his writing and always focusing on what he can do to make it better.

We had a special visit from a very special visitor to talk to us about everything guide dogs. We learned about why people may need them, why the are so important and how they are trained. The children were very happy when it came to petting time.
The children were learning how to strengthen themselves as a team as they raced against each other. The weather was beautiful and the 5A thoroughly enjoyed being outside.
Our writing focus at the moment is persuasive writing. Today we wrote the introduction to our letter persuading Mrs. Stott to help us raise awareness for refugees across the world. Riya has included modal verbs, emotive language, personal appeal/collectives nouns and a rhetorical question to make her reader listen to her.
