Week Beginning 10.02.17

We must start by saying a massive thank-you to everyone who came to see our class assembly. We had great fun putting it together and I think you will agree it was a great success with such confident performances. 

Literacy 

In literacy this week, we have been editing work. Looking at first drafts and seeing how we can improve them by: adding more description; using adjectives and adverbs; or changing the word order of sentences to make the meaning clearer or to create a desired effect. We have also been looking at indefinite articles: when to use 'a' or 'an'. 

Maths

We now love column addition! We have been working hard learning this new method and the whole class have decided it is now our new favourite method. We have been carrying and adding up numbers into the thousands. We have also been problem solving by calculating the missing numbers in number pyramids. 

Topic 

This week in Topic, we have been learning all about the Rive Nile and how important it was to the ancient way of life. We have been learning about the three different farming seasons. Ask us about them and see how much we can remember!

In other news...well done Samuel for getting wonderful work this week for your excellent attitude to learning all term and also getting Sportasaurus. We look forward to seeing what you both up to over the half-term break. Have a great holiday everybody and stay safe!
