Week beginning 07/11 – P7me

Literacy:

In literacy this week we have continued to look at information reports. After previously researching and finding out about the celebration of Black History Month, we are now looking at key activists, such as Rosa Parks and Nelson Mandela, as well as significant events, such as the Montgomery Bus Boycott. This week we wrote newspaper reports on a significant event which are now displayed on our wonderful work wall!

Numeracy:

In numeracy, we have been looking at converting between fractions and decimals. We have been focusing on understanding decimal place value, converting between fractions and decimals, and simplifying fractions in their simplest form.

Topic/IDL:

This week was our last week of our Air Race Challenge. We created poster presentations about an influential and innovative figure in aviation. We have examples such as Sally Ride and The Wright Brothers, who we also looked at through comprehension. We looked at aspects such as their early life, personal achievements, and how they have influenced the world of aviation.

Other Achievements:

On Friday this week we performed our Remembrance Day Poppy Assembly to the whole school. Our leadership team then went to the poppy memorial with Mrs Angus, to sing our remembrance song and recite a poem.
