20th and 21st April
Our new term has started and we have begun new units of work in English and maths.
In English we have started off with some descriptive writing activities, creating short paragraphs to describe a range of situations, making sure that we use good expanded noun phrases and connectives whilst also trying to use a range of sentence types and different sentence structures.
Our maths work has focused on shape as we have revised the names of 2D and 3D shapes and thought about their properties, particularly parallel and perpendicular sides and faces, but also revising angle and symmetry properties.
In addition, we had our usual Tuesday sessions of French, PSHCE and PE today and have tried some more of the BBC ReviseWise science activities. Both yesterday and today we also spent some time going through some questions on last year's Reading Test that we tried at the very end of last term.
