12th to 14th January
We have continued with our unit on writing newspaper reports this week. We have thought about the organisation of complete reports and the way journalists include quotes from commentators and people who have been involved in the "story".
In maths we are doing some quick mental arithmetic to start off our lessons and have then been solving maths problems (including "missing number" problems) using the calculator and "trial and improvement" methods.
We had our Tuesday French, PSHCE and PE sessions as usual and in ICT good progress was made in putting our notes into PowerPoint presentations as part of our geography topic on mountains. Our main science unit for this term is about materials which covers ideas about dissolving and reversible and irreversible reactions. We have started by doing some revision on the properties of materials and classified materials as man-made or natural and as solid, liquid or gas.
