We are really enjoying our new class read, a dystopian story called Boy in the Tower. This week, we have written newspaper articles, a formal letter and a Wikipedia entry about an invasive species of plant.
Over the last 2 weeks, we have been revising and learning about measurement and conversion of measure. Volume has been the focus of lessons this week and we have learnt how to calculate it as well as solving problems and carrying out an investigation.
In Science, we are learning about electricity, the different types of circuits and their features as well as how to identify errors in circuits. Next week, we will look at how electricity is made and think about and discuss ‘clean energy.
In Spanish, we have been enjoying our lessons with Ms Bowie from St Albans Boys School, who has been teaching us all about food in our lessons. Having revised our numbers, we also learned how to ask how much something is and answer in euros. This could come in very handy on those trips to Spain!
As the children know, next week, we will be doing another set of mock SATs papers; this is just part of our preparation for the tests which are coming up in May.
In the meantime, we wish everyone a lovely weekend.
