Cherry Class Blog Term 2 Week 6

Good afternoon everyone and welcome to our latest / penultimate blog of the term / year!!

In Literacy this week the children had the chance to plan and write, independently, a poem about a river journey, using figurative language features learnt this term (such as similes and metaphors, alliteration and repetition). 

In Numeracy, Year 6 looked at ratio and linked it to fractions also, whilst Year 5 finished the large topic linked to fractions.

Geography this week looked at flooding, in particular causes, effects and prevention measures. The children represented their learning in a range of styles and demonstrated their understanding of this topic.

In RE earlier in the week we investigated the '10 Commandments' and the children had the opportunity to write their own ten instructions / rules for a 'better' world.

Two weeks ago in Science the children invented and drew their own (new hybrid) creatures and in the lesson this week they used classification keys to describe their creations.

Well done for all your efforts this week, last week of term next week!

Regards

Mr J Ramsden
