On Wednesday this week we celebrated Fairtrade Fortnight, looking at stories from across the world of farmers harvesting bananas, cocoa beans and more and how Fairtrade helps them to earn a decent living wage. We created posters to help persuade shoppers to buy Fairtrade products and also engaged in debates surrounding the topic of Fairtrade. It was difficult to argue against Fairtrade, but we learned to think of counter arguments and ask questions to keep their other team thinking about their own arguments.

We dressed up on World Book Day as some of our favourite book characters while also creating our own versions of book covers and using our own names as the author.

In Numeracy we looked at area, volume and multiplication, while in our Writing we learned how to write a diary entry, being mindful to include our emotions and informal opinions.

Next week is STEM week and we are very much looking forward to being scientists for a week.

Enjoy your weekend!
