Week Beginning 23.05.16

This weeks the blog is written by Mia , Ella , Lucia

We  had a amazing week this week as we went on a class trip to the Amazona zoo in Cromer. It was fantastic to see all of the animals that we have been learning about and visit hot houses and see some of the incredible plants with giant leaves. We had a fantastic day. 

Topic

In topic this week, we have had lot's of fantastic homework come in. Isaac even won wonderful work for his amazing top trumps and his phenomenal  folder of work. We have learnt about the humidity and the weather in the rain forests in different countries, we wrote postcards and weather forecasts. We are developing a  strong affection for the rain forest. It is definitely our favourite topic.

Maths

In maths this week, we are practising our multiplication with special attention to our time tables and division facts. We have been swapping tips and tricks. We had our own sheets and had to practise them we only had five minutes to do it . We are all trying really hard to know our fives tens, twos, threes, fours and eights and the division facts. What a challenge! We all tried really hard and can see ourselves getting better all the time, we are all fantastic!

Literacy

In literacy this week, we have been practising our skills of reviewing and editing our work. We have been helping each other mark and improve our writing. We have also been using the computer to write recounts about our trip to Amazona Zoo.  We have been practising our word processing and also put borders around our writing. We liked writing on the computer as we could keep adding things in to improve our work and quickly change mistakes. We tried to include; conjunctions, adjectives, adverbs, powerful verbs, interesting sentence starts, time adverbials and fronted adverbials. Wow!

Spanish

In  Spanish this week we have been  learning how to say  where we live in Spanish and this is how we say it:

¿Dónde vives? (where do you live)
Yo vivo en una casa en Necton (I live in a house in Necton).

Art

In art we have been looking at scenery in plays and have started to create a massive backdrop for the school play. We had to really listen to each other and work as a team. It was really fun but messy!

Have a fantastic half term holiday everyone and see you on the 6th June.
