Term 4 Week 2

In English this week, we are going to finish our pieces of information writing which explain the events surrounding the battle for the English Crown in 1066. We will focus on using sequencing vocabulary, directional vocabulary and historical vocabulary to produce accurate and precise pieces of information writing. Next, we will turn our attention to narrative writing. We will use the kingdom and quest that we have already created as the basis for our writing. We will begin by creating a character description for our hero- Sir Fred.

In Maths, we will begin by completing a reasoning activity all about multiplication. We will investigate whether swapping the factors around in a multiplication calculation affects the product. Next, we will use the multiplication and division skills that we have learned over the last few weeks to become fluent at solving both arithmetic and reasoning problems.

In Science and Computing, we will use the best digital photograph that we took last week and explore how we can use photo-editing software to make it even better.

We will also complete guided reading, spelling, number-fluency, Zippy’s Friends, PE, RE and Design and the Arts lessons.
