1st to 3rd April
In English we did some more work on writing a discussion text about the issue of whether an hotel should be allowed to build a water sports centre in a quiet Lake District village. We concentrated on building good paragraphs with a clear opening sentence and supporting detail. Today we did a comprehension exercise.
In maths we did a practice maths SATs test on Wednesday (which we reviewed in maths today) while, on Thursday, we did some harder division calculations and checked up again on the kinds of multiplication sums we did on Tuesday.
On Thursday afternoon we had a visit to "Safety Zone" where we had eight different activities each teaching us about and testing our knowledge of issues connected with keeping ourselves (and others) safe. These included input from St. John's Ambulance Brigade, the police, EON electricity, Severn Trent Water Authority, Trading Standards and road safety officers. It was an excellent event.
We finished the week off with some more landscape painting and now we have two week's holiday. School re-opens on 20th April.
