4th and 5th October
We have continued with our poetry work, drafting another poem (using a different structure) and then developing and copying up our favourite for a class display. We also had time to begin thinking about some aspects of non-chronological reports ready for next week's English work.
In maths we did some work on decimals (focusing on decimal equivalents of fractions) and percentages (finding percentages of numbers and quantities).
We have concluded the main work in our science topic on electricity by revising ways in which we might change the brightness of bulbs in electric circuits and extending this to finding the effects of using long, thin wires in the circuits.
We had swimming on Thursday afternoon and today has been an INSET day.
