It is lovely to see the children back from half term looking ready and eager to learn! We started our new text in English, the diary of a young Roman Soldier. So far we have carried out a text deduction using pictures and information from the book, read chapter 1 and generated ideas for What a Roman soldier would need to be. We have focused on subordination in sentences this week and using 'I SAW A WABUB!' In maths we have started to look at area. We had a go at measuring area using post it notes to see how much surface the object covers.We counted squares inside the shape to find the area. ![](https://mrpablogs.net/images/area_post_it.png) The children have had a week jam packed with art. The children worked really hard to finish their lovely sewing that has been sent off today to be framed! They have done a smashing job. The children also started making their mosaic designs, the children are excited to start grouting next week. In PSHE the children discussed the different friendship groups they have and how they fit into them. ![](https://mrpablogs.net/images/friendships.png) We also had our class assembly this week. The children did a fantastic job sharing their learning about Ancient Egypt and impressed with their singing in French.
