15th and 16th September
We did some more of our comprehension work in English yesterday before moving on to think about story openings today. Developing the work on building characters, we thought about story openings in terms of whether they were mainly action openings, dialogue openings or descriptive openings.
Our maths work has mixed mental and written addition and subtraction calculations. In our mental work we have been adding or subtracting two-digit numbers (by partitioning the second number only).
Yesterday we learned about some planets in our science lesson and then did PE while this afternoon we did some work on the water cycle, labeling a diagram and annotating it to show and explain the processes involved in the water cycle. We have also made some quite good progress with our class story - The Iron Man.
