This Week in Cumbria

Week beginning Monday 9th January

On Tuesday, the children had a visit from a police officer to talk about internet safety and also the use of AI. This will be followed up by a second lesson later in the week. This lesson was planned by Miss Aldis and her group of students across Year 4, 5 and 6.

In Maths, we have worked on length and perimeter. By the end of the week, the children will find perimeters of rectilinear shapes. 

Following on from writing pourquoi stories, for example, how the giraffe got its long neck. The children are planning a news article based on Hiw the Stars Came To Be. They will think about the difference between reports and story writing 

The children have continued their learning about mountains. And have discovered how they were formed.

In Science, the children have used thermometers to measure temperature of water, learning about going below zero. They will be observing the temperature of melting ice.

Finally, a big thank you to the wonderful and supportive families. Whilst the children and I are sad to say goodbye this week, they have enjoyed getting to know Mrs Harding and Mrs Thomas over the last week. It has been a pleasure teaching Cumbria and I know they will continue to blossom in the last three terms of Year Four.
