Health<\/strong><\/p>\n

This week we learnt that racism was unacceptable. In order to raise awareness of racism we made\u00a0 ribbons.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

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

Reading – Metalinguistics<\/strong><\/p>\n

We used various strategies to work out the meaning of tricky words in our group reading books.<\/p>\n

Writing<\/strong><\/p>\n

We chose a character from our novels and created an informal letter in which they wrote to another character in the book.<\/p>\n

Talking and Listening – Philosophy<\/strong><\/p>\n

We designed the following thunk to debate and discuss:<\/p>\n

What do you prefer gaming or reading?<\/p>\n

In groups we expressed our FEELINGS and then shared with the whole class. There were some very interesting ideas and the class was split in two – approximately half in each group.<\/p>\n

Liam – I like gaming because the game never ends.<\/p>\n

Monika – I like reading so I can imagine things in my head.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

In the photo above we are listening to each other’s views and considering how to respond.<\/p>\n

Maths<\/strong><\/p>\n

We revised the names and properties of common 2d shapes using mathematical language such as curved, straight, regular and parallel. In groups we used our skills of COLLABORATION to create 2d shapes using string.<\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n

We learnt about the properties of 3d shapes and then went onto use pipe cleaners\u00a0 to build different shapes. The pipe cleaners were the edges of the 3d shapes.<\/p>\n

\"\"\"\" \"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n

Topic – Europe<\/strong><\/p>\n

We listened to the tale of the Pied Piper which comes from the German town of Hamelin. Then in groups we acted out the story using our role-play skills. It was great fun. Afterwards we discussed who had met the agreed success criteria and given the audience a good performance.<\/p>\n

Her are our freeze frames. Can you guess which character we were?<\/p>\n

Josh went on a shape hunt around school and found 3d shapes that we had been learning about.\"\"<\/p>\n
