Maths
We continued with multiplication and division this week and focused on the grid method for multiplication. The children have used this method before, but we moved on to using four digit by one or two digits. The children did excellently at this and showed good progress over the week.
English
We have continued with dramatic conventions this week, looking particularly at different styles of news broadcasts. We have looked at phrases that are used in news broadcast and wrote our own news broadcast. After that, we compared different types of news reports, looking at Newsround, sports reports and the BBC World news.
Science
Continuing our topic of Earth and Space, we have looked at why we have day and night both in the UK and across the world. Then we looked at the different time zones across the world and solved problems using this information.
Computing
Having researched the average number of daylight hours in a month in the UK, we have produced line graphs, from this we are able to analyse the data.
Art
Our Tudor portrait gallery is now on display outside the classroom.
Writing
This week we have started booster writing to help us improve. We began by looking at Expanded Noun phrases and then watched an extract of a video showing the launch of a new book called Tom Trueheart. We then wrote a description of the forest that was shown on the video.
Thank you to everyone that came to parent's evening, it was lovely to meet to all.
