This week, in Year 5, children have been writing their sensory descriptions based on an image from ‘The Day War Came’ by Nicola Davies. They have used a range of descriptive language including similes and personification to help create a visual image for the reader. Children have been developing their ability to multiply 2 and 3-digit numbers by single digits. Next week they will begin to apply this knowledge to solve problems.<\/p>\n
