In Maths this week we’ve finished our Geometry unit by looking different quadrilaterals and lines of symmetry\u00a0of a given\u00a0shape. Next week we’ll be returning to Number and Place Value with emphasis on deeper learning. The children have been encouraged for homework to consolidate their understanding of quadrilaterals, drawing lines of symmetry on shapes\/drawing missing sections of shapes\u00a0and practice rounding to the nearest 10, 100, 1000 (challenge – nearest whole).<\/p>\n
In English, we’ve been looking at our new text, Jemmy Button, and thinking of inventive ways to describe the settings. The children have been encouraged to practice their understanding of: using prepositional phrases within powerful and engaging sentences and use of (complex and non clich\u00e9)\u00a0<\/strong>similes to create an image in the reader’s mind e.g. The pedestrians scuttle around the city like<\/strong> ants rushing to their nests.<\/p>\n In RE, we’ve been looking at our Lenten promises and how they would help the world rather than just being a benefit for ourselves. Also, we’ve looked closely at Jesus’s time travelling through the desert and how he overcome temptation from the Devil.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n For spellings this week the children have:<\/p>\n Super 6 spellers<\/strong><\/p>\n look<\/p>\n looks<\/p>\n looked<\/p>\n could<\/p>\n would<\/p>\n should<\/p>\n (Short oo sound)<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Calendar<\/p>\n consider<\/p>\n early<\/p>\n earth<\/p>\n heard<\/p>\n learn<\/p>\n particular<\/p>\n peculiar<\/p>\n (ur grapheme)<\/p>\n <\/p>\n We wish you a lovely weekend<\/p>\n Team 4!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n In Maths this week we’ve finished our Geometry unit by looking different quadrilaterals and lines of symmetry\u00a0of a given\u00a0shape.
