Today, we are going to learn about Similes and Metaphors. https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/topics/zfkk7ty/articles/z9tkxfr
A Simile is when we compare one thing to something else e.g. Zak is as brave as a Lion. It tends to use ‘as’ and ‘like’.
A Metaphor is when you describe something as being another thing e.g. Sophie thinks books are the key to your imagination.

Today, we are going to think about adding and subtracting money amounts.
When we add and subtract money we use exactly the same strategies we would use when adding and subtracting any number. The main difference is that our pound amounts will have a decimal point. It is very important you remember your decimal point within your sum and that all your numbers are lined up.
