8low is our most recent blog. This includes a summary of the last two weeks including any important information for the coming weeks (reminders etc).
Despite another very hot week, Year 4 have continued to impress with their resilience, positivity and enthusiasm for learning. They have worked incredibly hard while coping with the warm weather and should be very proud of everything they have achieved.
Preparations for their performance have been in full swing! The children loved decorating their chimney sweep costumes, transforming their T-shirts into sparkling waistcoats by adding glitter buttons and necklines. They looked fantastic and performed their dance brilliantly during their first dress rehearsal in front of a mini audience. Their confidence, energy and teamwork shone through and they are now feeling excited and ready to perform for their families at the upcoming shows.
In English, the children have been writing persuasive letters to an author of their choice, encouraging them to visit our school and inspire a love of reading. They have carefully used persuasive devices, ambitious vocabulary and thoughtful compliments to make their letters as convincing as possible. They are looking forward to posting them next week!
In Art, the children completed their annual self-portraits. Using mirrors, they carefully observed their own facial features, paying close attention to shape, proportion and detail. The finished portraits are a wonderful reflection of the children's growing artistic skills and will be treasured keepsakes.
