Welcome back to a new term, we can not wait to start our brand new topic - Who was Florence Nightingale?
 
We’re really excited for our Inspiration Day on Tuesday 8th January. On the day we shall be having a visit from ‘Florence Nightingale’ and she will be telling the children all about her life and work. She will be bringing in various artefacts for the children to handle too. Look out for photographs on our Facebook page at the end of the day.
 
In our learning we will be:

• finding out about the life and work of Florence Nightingale
  
• comparing hospital conditions before and after Florence’s impact
  
• making a Florence Nightingale lamp
  
• using Scratch Junior to write algorithms
  
• finding out about how to keep healthy
  
• writing diary entries and letters
  
• learning about division and fractions
  

 
Reading at home is incredibly important for your child’s progress please continue to hear your child read at home. Please make sure their book is returned to school throughout the week to be changed.
 
Spelling tests will continue to take place every Friday, please note there will not be a test on the first week back. Homework will be given out on the first week back and will follow the same ‘project’ format as last year.
 
Here’s to a great half term!
Mrs Beighton
