This week we have been working on developing our writing by upleveling sentences and using more creative vocabulary.

In our Fairtrade topic we have been learning about different food and where it comes from. We learned that food such as peas, cabbages, leeks, strawberries and raspberries can be grown in the UK but foods such as bananas, pineapples, aubergines, kiwi and papaya are grown abroad.

Following on from an episode of Newsround that we watched last week we also learned more about Nelson Mandela and why he is a significant person from history. We learned that he was born on the 18th July 1918 and died on 5th December 2013. It is important that we remember him because he fought for equal rights for all South Africans.

In in Maths we are continuing to work on our understanding of number. We have been working on finding out multiples of numbers and partitioning large numbers. We are also practising our times tables.
