This week we have been busy once again!
In Numeracy we have continued working on our tables, with a focus on the 4x and 9x table. We looked at these in our Number talks before then working on these individually.
In Writing this week we started our new genre of Explanation Report Writing. We discussed how this sort of text had to be written in the present tense and also how this was not a text where we mention I or We or talk about our feelings. We worked together on our piece, creating a text about how bees make honey. This created some super discussion between us all. Read some of our pieces below:
In Reading we have continued to use our summarising skills. We have summarised our own group texts as well as another chapter of our novel. We need to ensure that we remember our punctuation as we write. Some of our pieces are below:
In our topic this week we have been looking at the different types of jobs the Egyptians may have done. We are going to use this further next week. We also created some line drawings of the Pharaoh – we had to ensure to include detail and take our time. Here are some of our drawings:
We will have a shorter week next week, but we will still have lots to do!
