We have continued with our work on Kensuke's Kingdom, finishing the drafting of our character studies and moving on to work on the second task which is to write a really dramatic account of being on board a small sailing ship on a storm. We started off by thinking about figurative language: similes, metaphors and, today, personification. We have also done some problem solving in maths.

We spent yesterday afternoon thinking about homes in Aztec times, comparing those of ordinary Aztecs with their nobles, with our own homes and/or with homes of Viking people.

We have also begun our technology project - by creating nets ready for us to make pneumatically controlled pop-up or pop-out devices.

(Ofsted Inspectors visited our school yesterday and today.)
