Our week...

This week we made the finishing touches on our stories and then edited and improved them. We then began our non-fiction work, focusing on instructions. We looked at a set of instructions on How to trap a dragon, learnt the order of the instructions and then picked out the different features. During our maths we extended our fraction work by using Smarties to find fractions of different amounts. Our topic lesson involved us comparing school life in New Delhi to our own school.

This week

This week we have been looking at fractions in maths. We learnt how to find halves and quarters of shapes and numbers. In our English we began writing our story. The children worked very hard to follow the success criteria and then learnt how to edit and improve their work. We loved our Indian dance workshop on Thursday where we listened to new music and then performed our dance. Thank you to those adults who were able to come and watch our dance, we hope you enjoyed it as much as we did.

Our week...

We have spent this week looking at angles and symmetry in maths. We looked at reflective symmetry, creating our own symmetrical patterns outside and learnt how to find different lines of symmetry in shapes. Here are some of our patterns...


During our Maths in Action lessons we took inspiration from the workmen on site and looked at the different ways they would be able to pay for the equipment they were using for our tarmac.
