Our Learning Last Week
Week Commencing March 18th
Guided Reading
This week's guided reading has focused on the classic text, Black Beauty by Anna Sewell. We have looked at the different vocabulary choices which were in line with the spoken language at the time of writing. We have discussed the authors intentions when using certain vocabulary, continued to use our scanning skills to find vocabulary and draw information from the text to support our answers.
English
The children have continued their work on wolves, analysing the example balanced argument in order to find the main features needed in their writing. They have identified these features, practiced writing their own and have discussed many SPaG features which will be impactful in their own writing. We have recapped passive voice, present perfect tense and relative clauses.
Maths
The children have been working on the perimeter and area unit. We have learnt to identify missing lengths on shapes and calculate the area and perimeter of a variety of shapes with missing lengths.
This term's Christian value
This term's Christian value is justice. We will be exploring this topic throughout our collective worship this term, as well as discussing in class what is meant by justice and what justice looks like in our every day life.
