P5 used our novel study Thumble Tumble and the Ollpheist as a stimulus for creating a setting in our writing lesson today.

We identified adjectives and similes that AH Proctor had used to describe Thumble Tumble’s cottage in order to inspire our own setting for our imaginative story we are creating.

P5 participated in some active numeracy rotations today as an introduction to our new numeracy topic on fractions.

We looked at representations of a fraction using dominoes, matching games and uni-link shapes as well as investigating different ways in which a fraction can be made.
