WWII
What a wonderful week of Class Talks. We had a few technical issues so 3 will be finished next week, but well done to everyone so far. The quality was fantastic and ranged from talks on spies and SOE’s to family recounts. A true privilege to hear them all. We also had some fantastic Morrison and Anderson shelters as you can see below. The effort again was tremendous. Well done everyone.
Numeracy
We started our revision of weight and measure this week, converting from grams to kilograms, kg to tonnes and vice versa. we also did some word problems with weight and looked at the difference of mass and weight and how much we would weigh on different planets due to gravity.
Literacy
This week we looked at imagery and figurative language to try and help us up level our writing. In groups we looked at our group novel and found examples of imagery and figurative language. We found that some authors are better than others at using this to help us visualise. We also peer and self assessed our Lion King recounts which were excellent.
