Hello and welcome to the P4/5 class page! This year, your class teachers are Mrs. Barr and Miss Campbell, supported by our brilliant classroom assistants, William and Karen. We are so excited for a year of astronomical learning!

Our exciting topic this term is Space. We are exploring the entire solar system and learning fascinating facts about all the different planets.

In Literacy, we are currently enjoying the novel 'Stanley in Space'. We are sharpening our writing skills by completing weekly SPaG (Spelling, Punctuation, and Grammar) work and learning how to write effective persuasive texts. During Guided Reading, we are developing strong comprehension skills by focusing on predicting, identifying key words, and questioning the text.

In Numeracy, we are mastering the place value of three and four-digit numbers, telling time, and focusing on complex problem-solving challenges, like finding all possible solutions.

Important Information

• P.E. is on Mondays and Wednesdays, where we will be focusing on games.

• In ICT, we're putting our space knowledge to use by creating informative PowerPoint presentations and fun Pic Collages about the planets.

We encourage both parents and children to check this page regularly for updates from our mission control!
