This week in our Literacy learning we looked at using formal language and captions and the types of genres these would be used in. We ended the term by watching the film, The Iron Giant which was inspired by our book this term. We discussed how the film had taken inspiration from the book and the similarities and differences between the film and the book.
In Maths Year 3 have been continuing to look at calculating perimeter of different shapes. Year 4 have started to look at fractions. We have looked at mixed fractions and different ways we can represent them.
In our final History lesson of this term, we looked at the fall of the Roman Empire and the reasons why the Romans left Britain and the impact it had on the country. In PSHE we looked at how to avoid scams and phishing when online as part of Internet Safety Week. In RE we looked at the difference between right and wrong, and analysed the story of Adam and Eve and how this illustrates temptation.
Next term we will begin our new topic Shake it! This will look at states of matter and how they can change. We will also be looking at trade around the world and how food is imported and exported.
We hope you have a lovely half term break. See you back on Monday 24th February.
Mr Saunders and Mrs Mallon.
