Congratulations to them all! We hope they enjoy reading their new books.
‘Words empower children to make sense of the world around them”
We recognise the importance of widening our children’s vocabulary.
Every day our children are given a “Word of the day” from Vocabulary Ninja.
Children read the word, the definition and they are given the opportunity to apply it to a sentence.
Have a look at this week’s words:
Grasshopper words (Key Stage 1)
Shinobi words (Key Stage 2)

Science:
Today we are going to look at the results of our investigation. Two weeks ago, we planted some cress seeds to see what conditions that plants need to grow. We placed some in the sunlight and gave them water, we placed others in sunlight but did not water them. Some plants were placed in a cupboard away from sunlight and we gave some of them water and not to others. This week we are going to look at our results and write a conclusion. There are photos of the cress for you to look at. When you have closely observed and compared the different pot, write a few sentences to tell explain what you have found out and whether your prediction was correct or not.
We hope you have a brilliant day!
