23rd and 24th November
Although we haven't quite finished our Mr Men stories, we have begun a new unit of work in English. This is a non-fiction unit about instruction writing. We started off yesterday by looking at a good instruction text and highlighting and making notes about the important features.
In maths our work has been about multiplication and we have been involved in thinking about mental and written methods of multiplication including, today, starting to work on multiplying decimal numbers.
We have made further progress with our design technology project and most of us have now completed the preparation of the pieces which we will use to make our weaving frames. Yesterday we marked out and then sawed the little notches that will keep the warp threads in place when we are actually doing the weaving.
Today we also had our French lesson and PE.
