Welcome to Blackfriars Bridge Class

[dropshadowbox align=”none” effect=”lifted-both” width=”auto” height=”” background_color=”#f2df31″ border_width=”1″ border_color=”#dddddd” ]Thank you to all parents who have participated in Parents Evenings using School Cloud. Unfortunately there were technical difficulties on a small number of sessions. Most of the sessions went smoothly and we hope that most parents found School Cloud easy to use and that the sessions were helpful.[/dropshadowbox]

This week our learning will be as follows;

• In mathematics we will learn how to find non-unit fractions of amounts before moving on to work on time.
• In English we will write our own version of Into the Forest in role.
• In science we will learn how the angle of a light source affects a shadow.
• In history we will compare the Stone Age, the Bronze Age and the Iron Age.
• In RE we will make Christingles.

Christmas will be a little different this year but we are trying to include activities the children will enjoy, while staying safe. Children may bring in Christmas Cards for their friends this week and post them in a box. They will then be quarantined over the weekend and sent home on Monday 14th. On Friday we have our Christmas jumper day Children may wear a Christmas jumper in place of their school jumper in return for a donation of £1.[/dropshadowbox]
