 Weekly Review   

It is lovely to be back at school; the children have come back with such positivity and determination in the final weeks before their SATs.  

April is Autism Awareness Month and our writing this week was about Stephen Wiltshire - an artist with a photographic memory who has autism. Scroll to the English section to read more. 

We enjoyed starting our Art unit this week which is all about self-expression. We drew portraits in the style of this one of Stephen Wiltshire and included elements of things that represent us. 

 It was lovely to see so many of you at 'Inside Ravenstone' this afternoon. The children really enjoyed the creative activities that linked to different topics we've done recently: Electricity in Science, building on TinkerCAD in Computing, the Earth and its resources in Geography and Stephen Wiltshire's life in English. 

 

Maths  

We've been firing on all cylinders for revision this week and have done amazingly well! 
We've revisited fractions, decimals and percentages and have applied this knowledge. 

English  

We spent Tuesday learning all about Stephen Wiltshire - a fascinating, London-born artist who was diagnosed with autism at the age of 3. He is capable of taking photographs in his mind and then recreates them on canvas - the results are breathtaking: 

Assembly Certificate Winners
'Inside Ravenstone' replaced assembly this week, but watch this space for next week's superstars!
Homework
With only two weeks until SATs, we strongly recommend that children are working through revision packs sent home and using their revision guides alongside work on SATs Companion.
Did you know... clicking the "Results" tab on SATs Companion will give you a list of things that you are smashing and things that you still need to work on!
Homework continues to be set on SATs companion. Additional work is available by clicking on the "Practise" tab. Each child also has a TTRS account.
