In term 4 we have learned to multiply and divide in numeracy. This has led on to us currently working with fractions – writing fractions from pictures, finding equal fractions, calculating fractions of amounts and the link between fractions, decimals and percentages.
In writing we learned the story of Little Charlie using the Talk for Writing process and did lots of work on what makes a good journey story. We eventually all wrote our own journey stories – they were amazing and all so different.
In art we worked really hard on making detailed drawings of Spring tulips, taking particular notice of the shapes involved. We used a variety of colours and shades to try and make them look as realistic as possible.

We have been continuing to learn a variety of sounds in our spelling work. We are becoming very good at stretching our words and growing our root words into a range of other words. We can usually find loads of rhyming words and splitting words into syllables helps us in reading and spelling. The spelling patterns can be found on the weekly class Thinglink in the Google Classroom.
Over the past few weeks, in P.E. we have been focussing on throwing, catching and batting. These skills have helped us to be able to play a successful game of rounders.
We begin our day by doing a variety of activities with our peers. We use our skills of creativity, communication, strategy, problem solving, turn taking, teamwork and many many more. We also use these skills during FUN 31. Click on this link to see what we have been up to. https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1T6n14TtaDopQKZl1I2JJWULlpQa0JHggFddZaFQGpac/edit#slide=id.p
Lastly, we have been working really hard on creating individual long stitch tapestries. We can now thread needles, start off using a new piece of wool, finish off a piece of wool correctly, share spaces on the fabric so that there are no gaps and we are even beginning to help each other with all of this and try to fix our own mistakes! Miss Masson is very proud of our progress!
