5th to 8th May
Next week it is our SATs test week so we have been doing a number of activities in English, maths and science to make sure that we are properly prepared.
In English we have done some fiction and non-fiction writing, reminding ourselves to use a variety of sentence constructions in our work; good varied vocabulary and the appropriate style for the audience and purpose of the piece. We have also thought about the range of punctuation marks which we know about, practising these and doing some exercises on the punctuation of speech.
We have covered a wide range of different activities in maths this week, including data handling, shape work and calculations involving the use of calculators. We have also practised a range of mental calculation methods.
We watched a little more of the BBC ReviseWise science video and had a go at the second science test paper from last year's SATs tests. (We went through this together today.)
In addition, we had our usual Tuesday sessions of French, PSHCE and PE, we had a creative PE lesson yesterday and did some art to finish of the day today.
