Literacy – We have been learning about similes. We used these to create poems about the ocean to link with our topic, Friends of the Planet.

Numeracy – We are finishing off our fractions work, and this week we started learning about 2D shapes and parallel lines. We have also worked on our mental maths skills.

LAC – We are learning about the plastic problem in our oceans. We looked at different pictures from WWF and discussed how the plastic problem made us feel and what questions we had about it. We also worked with our learning partner to create an invention that would help keep our playgrounds free of litter. We came up with lots of amazing ideas!
