We have been practising our place value this week in numeracy and we are all getting really good! During numeracy we were working at different stations to help us with our understanding of place value. We were working together to research house prices, populations and the cost of footballers to compare and order numbers.\u00a0 We also made numbers using cards and whiteboards and recorded our answers with our class iPads.<\/p>\n

We have continued with our class novel this week and it is getting very interesting.\u00a0 Lots of our literacy work this week has been based on \u2018Skellig\u2019 including writing a letter as the character of Michael to show our understanding of the novel so far.\u00a0 We included lots of description in our letter, with some very impressive similes, so that the reader could imagine what the house, garage and man in the garage looked like. \u00a0We used our portraits from last week to help with our descriptive writing. \u00a0Have a look at two of our class drawings.<\/p>\n

One of the characters in our novel is home schooled.\u00a0 We have discussed this as class and have started gathering lists of positive and negative factors of being educated at home.\u00a0 We will continue to work on this next week and start a debate.<\/p>\n

We were very luck to attend a Voice Rocks workshop! We played some singing games and Jennifer helped us with our signing techniques! Miss McCormack was impressed with the singing talent in our class! The pupils have been given flyers for free Voice Rocks workshops in the area.<\/p>\n

Finally we held a vote for our class topic and the winning topic was\u2026 Australia!! We are all looking forward to learning lots of new things about Australia in the coming weeks.<\/p>\n
