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

Mrs Wallace helped us in health this week. We learnt about how to be calm if we were faced with an emergency.<\/p>\n

Keris – I learnt how to do the recovery position.<\/p>\n

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

In group reading this week we practised using a dictionary to find the meaning of tricky words. Thinking about alphabetical order helped us to find the words quickly.<\/p>\n

During a visit to the library, we found some books about our new topic, WWII.<\/p>\n

In pairs, we searched the contents page of a WWII book and choose an area to research. Initially when we read the pages there were some quite complicated words so we used the strategies we had practised to work out the meaning of these words.<\/p>\n

This week in spelling we learnt how to spell the past tense of irregular verbs and we also learnt how to use the apostrophe for possession.<\/p>\n

Numeracy<\/strong><\/p>\n

In number talks this week we have started to discuss efficient multiplication strategies.<\/p>\n

We practised converting decimals and fractions to percentages and some of us practised finding 50 per cent of a quantity.<\/p>\n

Topic \u2013 WWII \u2013 Drama<\/strong><\/p>\n

We learnt about children who were evacuated from their homes during the war. During drama we used pair and group role-plays to show how the children and their families would be feeling.<\/p>\n

Lewis – I learnt that evacuees were evacuated to the countryside.<\/p>\n

Logan – I learnt that the U.K.used propaganda posters to help win the war.<\/p>\n

Georgie – We designed our own WWII propaganda posters.<\/p>\n

We were able to use our art skills and make links to our learning about persuasive writing.<\/p>\n

R.M.E.<\/strong><\/p>\n

We learnt about one of the parables that Christians believe Jesus told in order to teach people how to live their life. It was called ‘The Prodigal Son.’ When we had watched a cartoon version of the story we discussed the moral of the story and wrote a recount of the events in our book.<\/p>\n

Afterwards we watched a clip of Veruca Salt from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and discussed the meaning of this modern day parable!<\/p>\n

P.E.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This week we all (especially Miss Stanway) thoroughly enjoyed an enthusiastic game of Dodge Ball!<\/p>\n
