    In English this week, we learnt how to write and perform a radio advert, providing feedback to each other on both our persuasive language, and technique when reading our adverts. We then moved on to persuasive letter writing. We each thought about what we would like to change in our lives. We then planned and drafted our persuasive letters, making sure that we addressed them to the appropriate audience. Next week is assessment week, so we will continue our persuasive writing the following week.

    During maths this week, we have learnt how to use both digital and analogue clocks to tell the time in minutes, to and past the hour. Later in the week our focus changed to adding and subtracting three digit numbers with re-grouping. Next week we will also have maths assessments.

    In PSHE, we started our lesson by thinking about how the life of a baby starts out. Where does it begin to grow? How does it grow? We looked at some images of a baby inside a mother’s womb and found out that the baby grows inside the mother’s womb/uterus and gets all its nutrients in order to grow from the mother.

    We each had a picture of a baby and around it, we designed an information poster, showing all the things a baby needs to survive, to live and to grow. We tried to show our understanding that it isn’t just the physical things that are important; that babies need to feel loved and cared for.

    In Geography this week, we have been learning about the United Kingdom. We now know that the UK is made up of four countries. We also used atlases to find out the names of the capital cities in each country. It was tricky using an atlas, but it was fun.

    In Science this week, we continued our topic of light and shadow. In our lesson, we investigated what happens to shadows when the properties of light are changed. Did you know that the closer the object is to a light source, the bigger the shadow.

    That’s all for this week. We hope you all have a great weekend. Let’s hope for a little sunshine.
