'After He said this, He was taken up before their very eyes, and a cloud hid Him from their sight.' Acts 1:9

On Thursday 13th May, we celebrate the Feast of the Lord’s Ascension. The ascension of Jesus was when he ascended back to heaven to be with His Father, leaving his disciples with an extremely important mission. In RE this week, we have planned out and started to write a diary entry, from the point of view of one of the disciples. They were writing their entries, immediately after they had witnessed the ascension of their Lord, Jesus, reflecting on the mission Jesus has bestowed upon them. I am so proud of how well the class have shown an understanding of the events of the ascension, as well as drawing upon the emotions and feelings of the disciples. We will finish these diary entries off next week.

Here’s what else we have been learning this week….

In Maths, it has been all about pie charts!! We have been interpreting them, linking them with fractions and percentages and even drawing them!

In English, we have been focusing on subordinating conjunctions, subordinate clauses and word classes. We have been practising a lot in our GPS books, plugging any of those gaps in our GPS learning!!

In Science, we made periscopes! We then explained the science behind the function of periscopes, and had fun ‘spying’ on people in the classroom…

AWARD WINNERS!

This week’s Golden Award went to Tia for working so hard and contributing to class discussion.

The Maths Award went to Liliana for her superb work in Maths, this week.

The Writing Award went to Analiese for her well-written diary entry, in RE.

If anything changes, I will be sure to let you know
