This week in Belted Galloway

This week, the children in Belted Galloway class will be applying the skills they have learnt this year in their writing to complete a number of independent tasks where they will be writing in different genres inspired by the book we are currently reading: 'The Last Wild'. It will be good to see the children stretch their creative muscles, and to see how much they have learned this term.

Our work in art this term is in the field of collage. The children, after learning a number of skills, will have the chance to make decisions about which skill to use and about what inspiration their work will take.

In maths, we will be learning about the order of operations (BIDMAS or BODMAS depending on your age!), indices and moving into work involving prime numbers. The children are particularly excited about the 24 contest that we are also starting this week.
