23rd and 24th November
We completed our unit of work on fiction writing by creating one more story - this time under the title "The Big Event" - and have done some more maths focusing on subtraction, making sure that any misunderstandings about the process are dealt with and then moving on to work on maths problems.
We have had a PE session in which we played a netball style game. The skills we were concentrating on were finding space and quick passing when in possession and marking opponents when the other team had the ball.
In RE we are thinking about symbolism in religious understanding and in religious art (literature and fine art). We produced concept maps about the ideas of light and dark and looked for ideas related to the concept of light in songs and carols written in response to the Christian story of Christmas.
We have also taken our Design Technology work one step further by making different types of beams (using paper) and relating their cross section (circle, triangle, square, pentagon) to their strength.
