In maths we have been continuing our thinking about percentages, trying to ensure everyone has a good understanding of the relationship between percentages and fractions and being able to manipulate fractions so that we can work out percentages of different quantities and numbers as easily as possible.

We have been writing up our finished versions of Matthew Webb's biography and some of us have been researching the life of a World War I army officer - ready to produce a time line showing the main details of his life and a short biography about him. Next we will be moving on to do some autobiographical writing.

Today we had our Friday maths and English sessions (the latter focusing on reading activities) and we did some of our RE topic - Faith in the Arts. We looked at how Hindu artists use symbolism to reflect and communicate their beliefs.

We have also done some more history and fitted in another Christmas Concert practise.
