Cherry Class Blog 2026 27 Term 2 Week 2

Welcome one and all to our weekly Cherry Class Blog.

This week we have spent time in Literacy reading through the class text (a poem called The Highwayman) , discussing the language used, as it is set over 300 years ago. We also used different word classes, such as adjectives and adverbs to describe the main character.

In Numeracy this week, both year groups leant about fractions. Year 5 looked at fraction equivalence whilst Year 6 looked at how fractions can be divided and multiplied.

In Topic (this week Geography) we looked in detail at the journey of a river from source (over in the mountains) to the mouth (often the sea or another larger river). The children both drew and labelled their 'River Stages' learning.

In PSHE we had a discussion about bullying in preparation for anti-bullying week next week and in Science we looked at some more unusual plants and animals and tried to describe them scientifically. 

Have a great weekend everyone, wrap up warm!

Regards, 

Mr Ramsden, Miss Stokes and Mrs Abdi
