Maths
We have started a new unit on Fractions, sharing our knowledge from previous years and reminding ourselves how to find equivalent fractions and learning how to simplify them.
English
We have started to write a biography of Isambard Kingdom Brunel who was a civil engineer in the 19th Century. We are writing it as a shared and guided writing piece. The children will then write a biography of their own on another eminent Victorian.
Science
We wrote a script for the 'Learning Lab' - a ficticious TV station who specialises in learning videos. In pairs, the children presented them to the rest of the class. We have some talent!
Geography/History
We have been learning about the British Empire, locating the countries on a World map and finding the co-ordinates of the modern-day countries. We also calculated the time in each country when it is 12 noon in London.
