Newdale Express

Year 5 would like to say a huge thank you to Mrs Morrow for sorting out a lovely afternoon of treats based on The Polar Express. We enjoyed plenty of biscuits, candy canes and hot chocolate. It’s a good job we had an extra playtime this morning!

Christmas Visitors

We were so lucky to be visited by Mr and Mrs Claus today. The children enjoyed a lovely story all about Christmas in Telford. The children were all on their best behaviour to stay off the naughty list!

 

Thank you so much for dropping in to our super school Mr and Mrs Claus!

Spellings for the final week of term

This week, we will assess the children on the Jumping Orange words which they have had plenty of time to practise.

 

For homework, we would like each child to keep a moon diary which will take moments each day. Everyday, at the same chosen time, we would like the children to look up at the moon and draw it onto the sheet. If the weather is cloudy, then simply draw clouds! Hopefully they will begin to notice that the moon is ever changing. Week 7 jumping orange

 

Should your child wish to continue their investigation of the moon, they could produce a fact file or poster showing off their own research.

 

Here are a few good starting points for research:
