Term 1 Week 8

In Literacy this week we have been looking at creating a mood through our writing. We wrote character descriptions about Professor Snape to highlight what a sinister character he was, then we wrote setting descriptions about Hogwarts and the Forbidden Forest to show a sense of wonder and then fear. 

In Maths, Year 3 have been consolidating their learning on addition and moved onto looking at column subtraction. Year 4 have been looking at column subtraction including exchanging more than once. 

In Geography this week we have been learning to use atlases and Google Earth to locate key cities and landmarks and then map them onto a map of the UK. In music we looked at how to change chords on the ukuleles. 

We hope you have a lovely half term. 

Mr Saunders and Mrs Mallon.
