This week in class we have been learning about: the parable of The Lost Sheep this tells us God is like the good shepherd who cares about every single one of his people and is happy when they return to him. In science we have learnt about which materials will be more absorbent than others and why. In geography, we have learnt where hot deserts can be found and their features which include sand dunes and rock formations. In maths this week we have started multiplication and division.

Our Flashback 4 questions have been:

• Can you show me 5 equal groups of 2?
• How do you take a good photograph?
• Where would we find hot and cold deserts?
• What do we mean by ‘a religious worldview’?

Next week we will be learning about: In geography we will be looking into cold deserts and their features. In PE we will continue to develop a simple dance routine. In Science, we will conduct an investigation centred around ‘suitable’ materials. In maths we will continue to look at equal groups and introduce the multiplication symbol. In RE we will continue to look at the parable of The Lost Sheep.

In Phonics: most of the children are now learning the Set 3 sounds (see sound mats in bookbags to support your child with their learning). Please continue to read and change their books regularly.
