Literacy – This week in literacy we were learning about inferential and literal questions. Literal is when the answer is in the text. Inferential is when you have to find clues in the text for your answer.

Numeracy – In mental maths we did the daily 10. We were learning how to add HTU to HTU by looking at each individual digit. We challenged ourselves to beat our speed and shared our approaches.  In maths we were learning about division relating to multiplication tables, division of tens and units and division of hundreds, tens and units. We used materials to look at exchanging and carrying and how to set out and record each part of the process.

Art – We were learning about pop art. We traced  an image then we printed the tracing paper onto a plain bit of paper. It was split into 4 squares. You had to pick four different colours and alternate them in the four boxes.

We enjoyed doing some sewing with Mrs Nasar. Each one of us had an animal to complete. We threaded the needle with wool. We used this to sew the animal together. We had to leave a gap to allow the stuffing to get inside. Sewing was quite difficult but we enjoyed it because it was a challenge.

We shared some excellent presentations on Titanic and enjoyed using the facts we had gathered from a variety of different sources to create quizzes for our class mates. We discussed some of the things that led to the tragic disaster and looked at how many things were changed as a result of the findings from the enquiry into how the ship sank.
