Write an Exposition – We wrote about why we thought John Balliol should not have been king.
Multiply using the grid method
Measure in km and metres using a metre stick and a trundle wheel – we thought about how we would need measuring skills if we were builders, architect and engineers.
We found out how the SWI started, we studied pictures of Scottish soldiers shields and thought about how we would make our own shields. We are looking forward to making them next week!

Research for our Evacuation Leaflet
In Literacy -we investigated how we to use persuasive language. We put ourselves in Hitler’s place to write a speech to the German people convincing them to fight! We used super sentence starters and evidence to support our point of view.
In Maths- we continued to solve algebraic equations.
In Topic – we studied the Home Front…. we looked at The Blitz and Evacuation,
In ICT – we found out how to use Microsoft publisher to create a Government Leaflet on Evacuation.
In Art – we created our own gas masks and started to create evacuees.
This week we wrote gruesome recipes based on the book ‘How to Cook Children’ by Martin Howard. Mrs Telfer was really impressed with our recipes. Some of the titles include, ‘Ruby Rhubard Crumble,’ ‘Bella Bolognaise with Snot Sauce’ and ‘PENNYcotta.’ In Maths we continued with our Mental Maths strategies. We did a walk about answering the sums of the other people in the class. It was great fun and really got us thinking. We made 3D pictures of ourselves in art. They look amazing.
