Efficient methods of adding and subtracting decimals

Well done for all your hard work in maths last week. The tests were challenging and you all worked really well  - your confidence is growing - keep it up!!!
Next week we move on to finding the most efficient methods for adding and subtracting decimals. Some of these questions came up on the tests (adding and subtracting money, finding differences in lengths of ribbon)

Have a look at this video clip, it may help you.

Literacy - Settings

Well done, your discussion writing was excellent.
We are now moving on to narrative writing payng particular attention to settings.
What do you think makes a good setting? Remember to think about using your senses.
Think about the setting of Tudor House, the rooms within it and the grounds it is set in.
We look forward to hearing your ideas and reading your work!

Confirmation and Baptism links

In RE last week we looked very closely at the sacrament of Baptism. We hope you enjoyed the role play work on it!!

This week we will be studying the sacrament of Confirmation, especially what happens during the ceremony. Whilst doing this we will be thinking about the links with Baptism.

Can you remember the signs and symbols of Baptism? Which ones do you think might also be included in the sacrament of Confirmation? Can you give reasons?
