English
We spent the week preparing for our upcoming Advent assembly. We wrote Advent acrostic poems, practised our lines, and practised our songs.
Maths
We moved onto 2-digit by 2-digit subtraction. We made the numbers using base ten, and began exploring column subtraction (even using exchange!)
R.E.
We recognised the order of Mass and role-played it on Seesaw.
P.S.H.E.
We explored the term 'stereotype' and how they can be wrong! We also applied it to families and talked about how there isn't such thing as a stereotypical family.
Computing
We used the 'Stop Motion' app to practise recording frame by frame animation.
D.T.
We made 3D net structures.
Geography
We explored different climate zones and how being near/far away from the equator affects them.
