Oak Class Blog - 10th December 2021

This week, Oak Class have enjoyed creating their own Greek myth, continuing to explore fractions in Maths and delved into the history of the Olympics in History. 

Maths

The exploration of fractions continued this week, in Oak Class. The class have really grown in confidence when working with fractions and this week used bar models to show adding and subtracting fractions and comparing fractions.

English

This week, Oak Class completed their mythical stories. They have all worked really hard in learning about myths and their features and planning and writing their own. I know the children are really proud of the stories they created and so they should be. 

Topic

We are drawing to the end of our History topic on Ancient Greece and preparing for our Ancient Greece mini Olympics next week in PE. Like the competitors in Ancient Greece, Oak Class will be wearing wreaths during the opening ceremony, which they made themselves this week. 

PE 

This week, it was the turn of Year 6 to have their rugby taster and once again Kimberley the coach was so impressed with their team spirit, attitude and skills. In the meantime, the Year 5 children carried out some fitness/skills tests of their own as you can see from the photos below. 

If your child is interested in going to rugby sessions outside of school and work with Kimberley again, please go to www.wymondhamrfc.com for details of sessions.

Proud Learning

Have a lovely weekend,
