We have done a variety of activities in English so far this week. On Monday we did some poetry work, first thinking about text which could be regarded as a poem or a piece of prose and discussing what we thought, then looking at a poem by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. after studying this, we answered some comprehension questions about the poem and vacabulary. Yesterday we wrote a story which will be assessed using SATs-type criteria and today we continued improving and writing up our Mr Men stories.

In maths we have been thinking about mental calculations - particularly multiplication - and also done some work on factors. As well as this we have kept revising our fractions work from last week.

In RE today we recalled our learning about the 5Ks of the Sikh faith and their purpose in reminding the wearers of important things about God and how they should live. Then we thought about what was important to us and what we could wear to remind us of these important things and/or how we should behave.

We had our usual Tuesday sessions of PE and French yesterday.
