We have continued with our fiction work in English, beginning to work on the "build-up" of our stories. We have also had our weekly session on developing comprehension skills. Our main maths learning has been about percentages. This has included relating percentages to their fraction and decimal equivalents and finding fractions of numbers and quantities. Today we learned about and tried activities involving Roman numerals.

On Monday we developed our understanding of life cycles by thinking about the life cycle of the frog. Following our work on the butterfly, we did this by creating a computer presentation to show our knowledge and understanding.

In the early part of the week, we were also preparing for our visit to Southwell Minster. This was on Thursday and we had a very good day learning about both the building and some of the things that go on there. Today we followed this up with some reflection on the day and our learning.
