Maths:
Star Lords have been continued developing their skills in calculating area and perimeter by solving different problems. We also had a wee reminder on how to create symmetrical shapes. Thankfully we all remembered!
Dragon Mages have been working hard to develop their problem solving skills with Miss Shaw. We were concentrating on finding lots of different ways to solve the problems such as counting up, counting down, using tens and units or using our fingers. We have to then explain how we have solved the problem and we are all getting much better at it.
Potion Masters continued to develop their skills with using a calendar. This time we had to answer question by reading calendars. Some of us are still finding this a little bit tricky, but we will continue to practice through homework.
In language we all attempted to write a scary story. We had to include our feelings, use our senses to describe in order to help the reader get a picture in their mind. We also learned what suspense is and tried to include that in our writing too.
In R.E. we have been learning about Shabbat which is the Jewish day of rest. Traditionaly the family come together before the sun has set and they light a candle that you keep lit until it burns out. The family share a meal together and say a prayer.
