21st and 22nd January
We began new units of work in both English and maths yesterday. In English we will be thinking about narrative writing again, this time concentrating on mystery/ghost stories and how authors create suspense and build tension. So far we have annotated a short mystery story and done a comprehension exercise on passages from a "ghost" story. Our maths work for the next couple of weeks is based on measurement and data handling and we have already worked on changing measurements from one unit (e.g. grams) to another (kilograms or even metric tonnes).
We have thought more about the process of the evacuation in World War 2, this time gathering information from the internet, and we have also had music, PE, French and PSHCE.
