We have had a grammar and punctuation focus in English this week, thinking about sentence structures including adverbial clauses, adverbs of probability and the punctuation of direct speech. We have also done some more work on story structure. In maths, we have been developing our abilities to use bar models to represent different maths problems (including writing problems to match different model structures). We have also worked on addition and subtraction of fractions.

We completed our science topic on materials and their properties this week and we had an end-of-unit review test to check our learning. In geography we did some atlas work, checking our knowledge of the location of the continents of the world, the oceans and major seas of the world and the seas around the British Isles. We had a dance session in PE and started to make some elements of the framework for our automata in Design and Technology.
