This week in writing we watched a clip called, ‘The Lighthouse’ and
we had to rewrite the story. We had to focus on descriptive language, we thought about noises that we could hear and items we could see.

In maths we have been learning how to partition numbers. For example if the number was 2984 you would partition it as 2000 + 900 + 80 +4. We have also been working on learning our timestable facts.

Our new topic is Fairtrade. So far we have learned about Fairtrade
farmers that grow bananas and that it is important because often if
products are not Fairtrade the farmers, who do A LOT of work, do not get a fair cut of the profit. When we were learning we participated in some role play, it was a fun way to learn about such a serious issue.
