Year 4
LiteracyOver the next few weeks, year 4 will be linking their history learning through their literacy. We began this week by learning some of the background of the Romans. We used various cooperative learning structures to record notes about our learning. Alongside this, we have practised using a variety of apostrophes, for contractions, possession and omission. We worked hard to display our understanding of verbs, adverbs and onomatopoeia within our sentences. Our visitors did a great job of helping us with this during family learning day. | MathsThis week in Maths we did some skills consolidation to help us feel more confident when using the grid method. This really helped, and we agreed that we have improved! On Tuesday we had lots of fun for family learning day! We were able to follow the question and answer treasure hunt and show our visitors what we understand by putting our knowledge and skills into action! To practise measurement and weight, we followed a recipe to make rice crispy cakes - that involved lots of concentration to make sure we put in the right amount of ingredients. |
Year 3
LiteracyYear 3 have continued learning about play scripts. After enjoying acting out a play they are now writing their own scenes for a well-known story. They need to use the correct format for writing a play script using brackets and colons. After reading Scene 1 of Little Red Riding Hood, they went on to write Scene 2. This was on Family Learning Day so parents were able to join in with the writing and acting out of the scene. They have continued working on their scripts and are now working on the final Scene 3 and are looking forward to acting out their stories. | MathsIn Maths, Year 3 have been showing their understanding of place value by plotting two and three digit numbers accurately on a number line. They have learnt that certain information needs to be displayed on the number line so they can position given numbers accurately. They have had discussions and drawn up a list of ‘Helpful Hints’ to help them draw up their own number lines. They have also been practising their 2, 5 and 10 times tables and new learning includes the 4 times table. |
Next week we will be talking about...other festivals people around the world may celebrate.
