This week in English, we have been writing our own non-chronological report based on pirates using all we have learnt over the past two weeks including facts, opinions, conjunctions and prepositions. Next week in English, we are beginning our work on Winnie the Pooh and its Author A.A. Milne. We will be learning about the history of the stories, which are 90 years old this year, before exploring the settings and characters in the stories. This will all be further developed by our trip to 100 Acre Wood during our School trip to Aldenham Country Park where we will be developing our own setting descriptions.

This week in Maths, we have been revisiting methods which we have previously learnt and using these to answer a range of questions, including column addition and subtraction with regrouping of both the tens and ones and short multiplication. We will also be applying these methods to add and subtract different amounts of money. Next week in Maths, we will be continue to revise methods which we have previously learnt and use this methods to answer a range of questions.

This week in Science, we have been investigating light in different locations around the school. We have been learning about the sun, and the dangers of UV lights. We have learnt about how UV lights work, and how they affect us, and what we can do to protect our skin and eyes from the dangers of the sun.

This week in RE, we learnt about symbols from Christianity and Islam and their meanings before matching the correct pictures with the correct descriptions. We learnt about how people express themselves through the symbols and activities they do to express their religion.

Congratulations to this week's stars!
