We began an new area of study in English, thinking about poetry. Today we looked at two "classic" poems - discussing and making notes about meaning, organisation, rhyme and rhythm. We also practised our dictionary skills as we looked up the meaning of archaic vocabulary. Our maths work today focused on relating fractions and decimal fractions to percentages before we moved on to begin working out percentages of numbers.

In ICT we looked at an example of a powerpoint presentation about Snowdonia. Then we used information from a CD-ROM to begin making bullet-points for our own presentations about different major world mountain ranges. We finished the day by practising our Harvest presentation.
