21st to 25th January
We have continued our study of the poem The Highwayman this week. We have thought about the use of figurative language (simile, metaphor and alliteration) in the poem and tracked the actions of the main characters, reflecting on how the poet wanted the reader to regard the character. We have also written some poetry of our own.
Our main maths work has been about data and graphs. We have collected data in maths experiments, drawn bar charts, bar line charts and line graphs to represent data we collected or were given and have interpreted graphs to explain what different graphs have shown.
In science, we wrote up a report of the investigation of shadows that we carried out last week and thought about the structure and organisation of science reports in general.
In addition, we had two sessions of PE, did some more Scratch programming in ICT, had a science lesson on healthy diet and we finished with a history lesson about the building and development of Nottingham Castle.
