This week in Belted Galloway class

We will be starting new topics in both English and Maths this week. In English we will be beginning some work on persuasive writing, looking at adverts and letters, so be prepared for your children to come to you with some compelling arguments about staying up late! In maths we will be looking at revising, developing and extending the children's grasp of subtraction. The children enjoyed working through the learning stages last week, and they responded well to asking for teaching when they hit a specific barrier. Hopefully this will continue in our work on subtraction. We will be completing our block of work on Forces this week, with the children planning, carrying out and drawing conclusions from their own fair tests.
