Great week!

We are very happy to have Mrs Caddell in class working alongside Mrs Little until Easter.

Language

This week we have been developing our use of similies in our writing. Here are some examples of similies –

Megan – as flat as a pancake

Alex – as slow as a snail

Joshua – as warm as the sun

Murray – as fierce as a tiger

Hannah – as quick as lightening

Maths

This week we have been developing our ability to find the coordinates of an object on a grid. We have also been learning to find the position of a point using grid lines which was a little tricky to begin with. We have a little saying that helps us to remember how to use a grid –

Mia – along the corridor and up the stairs

P.E.

We had great fun with Mr Jeffries this week! We were learning a Scottish dance called the Gay Gordons.

Kiara – I was a bit uncomfortable at first then I really liked it

Suvi – I enjoyed the part when we had to swing our partner round

Amy – it was a bit tricky at first but I got the hang of it

LATC

This week we have been learning about Viking longboats. Here are some of the facts we found out and some pictures of us making our boats –

Mia – the other name for a longboat is a dragon ship

Megan – they have shield on the side to protect the men and women on the boat

Campbell – at the back of the boat they used a big oar to steer the boat

Alex – 50 or 60 people can fit on a longboat

Alfie – they carve a figurehead on the front of the boat to scare off their enemies in battle
