What we are doing this week in Lilac Class for the week beginning 11.12.23

In Maths this week in Lilac Class we are adding fractions with different denominators.  We are finding the common denominator using our knowledge of factors and multiplication.  We will also be using pictorial representations to support our calculations.  We will then move onto adding fractions that are greater than one by converting mixed numbers into improper fractions. This will lead us onto adding two mixed numbers using partitioning and recombining. 

In English this week in Lilac Class, we are writing up our travel articles as a best copy. We will be looking carefully at our levelling up and making our writing the very best that it can be!   

For our Whole Class Guided Reading we are reading Chapters 15, 16 and 17 this week of the Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. These are the final chapters of our guided reading text. We are explaining how the author C.S. Lewis makes Chapter 16 uplifting and in the final Chapter answering why the author may have given Edmund retribution. 

In RE, we are finishing off re-visiting our Big Question ‘Was Jesus the Messiah?’ drawing on the knowledge we have gathered throughout this unit.  What does the Messiah mean?  What examples from the texts that we studied are evidence that Jesus was to be the Messiah?

For Time and Place, we are we finishing off our work about locating major cities in North and South America and finding out where Belize is in relation to these continents.  For Science in Lilac Class, we are finding out that levers, pulleys and gears allow a smaller force to have a greater effect.   We will also learn that if a gear gives you more force, it must give you less speed at the same time.  If it gives you more speed, it has to give you less force. That’s why when you’re going uphill in a low gear, you have to pedal much faster to go the same distance. In Art, we are continuing with our pastel drawings of peppers drawing on the work of the artist Yayoi Kusama.   

There will be no Homework for the Christmas Holiday.  However, there will be the rest of our e-book ‘Planet Earth’ on Purple Mash to read.  I will also attach our Learning Curriculum Matrix with optional activities that your child might want to do over the holiday. Tunbridge Wells Library are holding another Winter Mini Reading Challenge.  Please visit the library for details.

In Maths this week in Lilac Class we are adding fractions with different denominators.  We are finding the common denominator using our knowledge of factors and multiplication.  We will also be using pictorial representations to support our calculations.  We will then move onto adding fractions that are greater than one by converting mixed numbers into improper fractions. This will lead us onto adding two mixed numbers using partitioning and recombining. 

In English this week in Lilac Class, we are writing up our travel articles as a best copy. We will be looking carefully at our levelling up and making our writing the very best that it can be!   

For our Whole Class Guided Reading we are reading Chapters 15, 16 and 17 this week of the Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. These are the final chapters of our guided reading text. We are explaining how the author C.S. Lewis makes Chapter 16 uplifting and in the final Chapter answering why the author may have given Edmund retribution. 

In RE, we are finishing off re-visiting our Big Question ‘Was Jesus the Messiah?’ drawing on the knowledge we have gathered throughout this unit.  What does the Messiah mean?  What examples from the texts that we studied are evidence that Jesus was to be the Messiah?

For Time and Place, we are we finishing off our work about locating major cities in North and South America and finding out where Belize is in relation to these continents.  For Science in Lilac Class, we are finding out that levers, pulleys and gears allow a smaller force to have a greater effect.   We will also learn that if a gear gives you more force, it must give you less speed at the same time.  If it gives you more speed, it has to give you less force. That’s why when you’re going uphill in a low gear, you have to pedal much faster to go the same distance. In Art, we are continuing with our pastel drawings of peppers drawing on the work of the artist Yayoi Kusama.   

There will be no Homework for the Christmas Holiday.  However, there will be the rest of our e-book ‘Planet Earth’ on Purple Mash to read.  I will also attach our Learning Curriculum Matrix with optional activities that your child might want to do over the holiday. Tunbridge Wells Library are holding another Winter Mini Reading Challenge.  Please visit the library for details.
