We have spent lots of time sharing our Literacy and Topic work with eachother and Yr 5 and 6. This was a very valuable experience, which enabled us to learn from our peers.
In Literacy this term, we will be writing some poetry based on Kit Wright's 'Magic Box'. This week, the children have started to explore the poem and have had a go at making changes to it, in order to make it more their own. Next week, the children will be planning and writing their very own Magic Box poem. We look forward to reading them.
In Maths, we have been practicing our multiplication methods, particularly the grid and expanded method. Children are grasping these concepts well and we hope to move on to division next week.
We rounded off our 'states of matter' topic in Science by looking at the roles of evaporation and condensation in the water cycle. We look forward to commencing our topic on living things next week.
