So you see how it is written that the Christ would suffer and on the third day rise from the dead, and that, in His name, repentance for the forgiveness of sins would be preached to all the nations, beginning from Jerusalem. You are witnesses to this.

Our learning this week…
In English, we have started our new class text ‘ The Lost Happy Endings’ by Carol Ann Duffy. This week, we began by exploring a selection of illustrations from the story, immersing ourselves in each scene considering what we might see, hear, smell and feel. The children enjoyed creating their own ‘freeze frames’ of each scene before writing their descriptions in detail.
In Maths we have been continuing to develop our knowledge of fractions. This week we focused on adding and subtracting fractions, applying our knowledge to a range of real life word problems. We also learnt about finding a fraction of a quantity, using bar models to support our understanding.
In RE this week we have been thinking about the importance of the Easter symbols. We researched five symbols in detail, making link to scripture. The children enjoyed creating their own ‘podcasts’ to present their understanding.
