We have been really enjoying our Caribbean Island topic over the last few weeks. In small teams we worked very well together to create a model island. This helped us to develop our creativity and problem solving skills. We had to plan what resources we would need, share responsibilities and use our listening and talking skills. We hope to add more to these models as we learn more but have enjoyed presenting what we have done so far in class.

In literacy we having been developing our reading and writing skills by researching famous pirates and then using the information to create fact files.

In numeracy we have been revising addition and subtraction. We have been focusing on mental strategies. We have also been working on fractions and finding the area of a shape.
