Mental Addition

Hello 5F.

This week we are going to be using the dienes to help us add, but we also need to practice our mental addition methods.

Have a go at the game we’ve been playing in class:

We have been doing lots of reading in 6F!

We have been reading in the classroom, reading in the library, reading on our own, reading with a friend, reading as a whole class!

Remember to read at home too! Where will you read? Who will you read with?

It’s the final day of our holiday!

We went to Robin Hill and had loads of fun!

We’re happy, tired and looking forward to seeing you all this evening!

We had a snack picnic on the ferry and enjoyed the sunshine.

Goodbye Isle of Wight!

Tonight is our final night at the hotel and we had a disco!

This morning we split into two groups, half of us stayed in Sandown village. We went to an amazing glassblowing workshop with Ed.

Then we visited some shops to spend some of our pocket money- we loved the sweet shop!

And then in the afternoon, we went go karting and it was incredible!

Hello! We have had another lovely day!

We started of by taking a chairlift down to the beach. It was a bit scary at first but we all loved it in the end.

Then we got onto a boat and had a cruise around the Needles.

After that, we travelled to Black Gang Chine.

We went to the beach for the final time and had so much fun!

Today was Nia’s birthday and we made sure that we made her feel special! There were balloons, presents, cards and a cake!!

After a good night’s sleep and a huge breakfast, we headed across the island to Osbourne House (Queen Victoria’s house).

We dressed as Victorian servants and tried our hands at some of the jobs they would have done.

Then we headed over to Carisbrooke Castle where we met some very friendly donkeys and walked around the walls.

The children have been absolutely fantastic again today: polite, well-behaved and positive!

We went down to the beach for a cool down and it was lovely!!

We started the day off on the coach:

We arrived at the hotel, unpacked our bags and had pizza, chips, salad and ice cream for out dinner. It was delicious.

Finally, it was time for the beach. it was just what we needed after a long, hot day!
