LITERACY

This week our work will focus on instructions. The children will learn about writing a set of instructions and write some of their own. We will also be investigating about different types of adjectives. We will be learning that we can add ful, less, ly or er on to the end of a noun it changes to an adjective.

RE

We are continuing with our topic – listening and sharing. We will be looking closely at the parts of the Mass, the presentation of the gifts and the Eucharist.

TOPIC

This week we will be starting a new International Primary Curriculum topic.

Paintings, pictures and photographs.

We will be thinking about what the topic will be about and what the children would like to learn. This week we will be considering all the pictures that we see around us.

For example:

• Adverts to persuade

• Works of art to decorate

• Signs to inform

SPANISH

In Spanish we will be reviewing colours and be learning about higher numbers. We will be adding numbers in Spanish.

Have a good week everyone.

The 3 and 4 teachers.
