This has been our main assessment week for the summer term with us completing our "Optional End of Year" tests in English and maths and these have taken up a little time each day.

In addition, we have continued with our English work on persuasive writing by looking forward to our Book Week next week and writing a radio advertisement for the Grandpa Chatterji book that we read together earlier in the term. Having complete some work on line graphs we did a little more about capacity and also thought about probability.

We have spent some time following up our work on childhood in ancient Athens, written about and  developed our "cam" mechanisms and had PE, music and science sessions.

A new piece of work for us this week has been our new RE topic. This is going to be about the work of Christian Aid and Islamic Relief. We have started by thinking about charities we have heard of and what they do and the idea that most charities are set up to change things in some way or another. We then considered what we might like to change and make better about the world in which we live.
