This week in English, we have been looking at ‘Fables’. We learnt that a fable contains a moral lesson about life or how to behave. We looked at 3 different stories and then wrote a scenery setting and a character description.

In Maths this week, we learnt how to count in hundreds and tens on a number line and identify numbers on a number line. We also learnt how to estimate the position of three-digit numbers on unmarked number lines. We then learnt to compare one-, two- and three-digit numbers.

This week in Science, we started the lesson by looking at a website called Explorify. We were shown a three different photos whereby we had a discussion which one was the odd one out. We discussed which one we thought as a class before writing down our final thoughts onto a post it note. We were then given another photograph of two plants talking to one another. We discussed the photo as a class which lead onto a further discussion answering the ultimate question – what if plants could talk. We finished by writing down our final thought and answering the question.

This is what we learnt in computing this week;

• To learn about the meaning of age restrictions symbols on digital media and devices.

• To discuss why PEGI restrictions exist.

• To know where to turn for help if they see inappropriate content or have inappropriate contact from others.

We continued to rehearse for our Christmas production and in music this week we practised the songs ready for bringing our performance to the stage!

Enjoy the occasional day everyone!
