In numeracy this week we’ve explored different uses for, and solved calculations involving negative numbers. As well as this, we’ve used Magma Maths on our Ipads to help us show our working, and improve our problem solving skills.

In literacy we’ve been reading non-fiction books about crime scene investigation, mangrove forests, helicopter pilots and expeditions into the arctic circle. We also wrote explanation texts, which explained the process of evacuation during world war 2.

In health and wellbeing we completed our gymnastics unit by performing a series of movements and group balances. As part of our P.A.T.H.S unit about respect we learnt about the importance of fair trade, and working conditions in developing countries.
