Term 1 Week 1

It has been a busy and exciting first week back. We have started our Literacy story, Robinson Crusoe, all about a man who is stranded on a desert island and has to survive. We created character descriptions of the main character using noun phrases to add detail. 

In Maths we have been looking at place value, and representing and partitioning numbers up to 1000. We have looked at the meaning of the place value columns and how this allows us to order and compare numbers. 

In our Computing we are looking at desktop publishing. This week we created word documents and learnt how to add images, change the text and add text boxes to create a poster. In our Science learning we investigated light using bubbles and CDs to investigate reflection, and testing whether we can actually see in the dark. In our Art lesson, we have looked at sketching techniques and used these to draw and shade animals. 

We hope you have a lovely weekend, 

Mr Saunders, Mrs Hendry and Miss Parkes.
