Literacy <\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

During writing this week, we were focusing on varying our sentence length when writing a Viking dairy entry. We had to include connecting words, adjectives and facts we have learned about the Vikings.<\/p>\n

During reading, we were sounding out unfamiliar words and then answering reading comprehension questions about our text.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe were answering questions about our reading books.\u201d<\/p>\n

We use the look, say, cover, write strategy to help us sound out words containing our spelling pattern. In groups, we also played a tricky word flash card game.<\/p>\n


\nMaths<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

This week, we learned more about addition. We were learning to use column sums to help us add bigger numbers. It is very important we remember our knowledge from place value when using this method.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cWe used Number Talks to discuss the different strategies we can use when adding.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThis week, we were learning to add using column sums.\u201d<\/p>\n

IDL<\/p>\n

<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

This week, we were learning about the Lewis Chessmen. These were found on the Lewis Island in 1831. There were 93 gaming pieces in total. Each piece is different and you can see these today at National Museum of Scotland.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cThe Lewis Chessmen are the game pieces that the Vikings use to play chess.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe game pieces were carved from walrus ivory and whales’ teeth.\u201d<\/p>\n

Christmas Lunch and Christmas Jumper Day<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

On Wednesday, we enjoyed our Christmas lunch and on Friday we liked wearing our Christmas jumpers to school to raise money for the charity Save the Children. We are getting very excited for the holidays.\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n
