Thank you so much for all your fantastic work on Ancient Egypt. I can’t wait to see it all properly when we are back at school. Thank you to those of you who have sent me photographs of your work; I have loved seeing what you have been up to.

 

As we are now in a new half term, we are due to start our new theme and Science unit.

 

Our theme this half term is Frozen Kingdom.

 

Hopefully we will be back at school soon to do some learning together but whilst you are at home, I have created a grid of things you might like to get started on. Click on the PDF below.

 

Our new Science unit is Life Cycles.

 

This links nicely to some of our theme.  Again, there are different activities you might like to do at home. Click on the PDF below.

 

This is work for the next half term. You are NOT expected to do all these activities, you can do as many of them as you like.

 

We will look at and celebrate all of your work when we are back at school or you can send me photographs on an email on Purple Mash. Remember you can email me on there whenever you like. I love hearing from you!

 

Keep smiling!

 

Miss you all lots,

Mrs Hewitt
