English
We started reading 'Journey' by Aaron Becker, a stunning wordless picture book that tells the adventures of a young girl armed only with her imagination and a red crayon.
We created our own fronted adverbials, wrote them in sentences, and used them to make a fantastic setting description of the forest that the young girl went into.
Maths
We solved three-digit addition number sentences using column addition. We even practised carrying a ten!
R.E.
We started our Prophecy and Promise unit. We talked about the word 'prophecy' and how it is used in the Bible.
We also created a poster advertising what we should and shouldn't do on a holy day.
P.S.H.E.
We discussed the word 'respect' and how we can show respect in our lives. We also made a playground game in small groups, working on communication and showing respect to each other.
Computing
We started our new animation unit. We made flip books to show a character moving.
D.T.
We started our structures unit. We evaluated different structures.
Geography
We identified the different lines of latitude.
Outdoor learning
We measured the heights of different trees using just our bodies!
