This week the children had a chance to reflect upon their own learning in English by writing out what they think they do well and what they think they need to improve. They also got a chance to practise and perform the playscripts they wrote themselves. Some of these were performed well, but many needed a reminder that they aren't robots! We'll need to work on public speaking skills more!
In Maths the children have learned to calculate the perimeter and area of simple rectangles. They also know how to classify angles as acute, right, obtuse, straight or reflex. The homework this week looks at both of these concepts further and is due as usual on Tuesday. The children even began to draw tessellations. What's a tessellation again?
Did any of you learn anything in particular you want to share?

Have a look at this website to see some cool tessellations and further information on how they can be formed.
Have a great weekend!
